Using Johnny-Five with Grove's Servo and Rotary Potentiometer components on the Intel Edison Arduino Breakout. This shield and component will work with any Arduino pin-out compatible hardware platform.

Run this example from the command line with:

node eg/grove-servo-edison.js
var five = require("johnny-five");
var Edison = require("edison-io");
var board = new five.Board({
  io: new Edison()
});

board.on("ready", function() {

  // Plug the Rotary Angle sensor module
  // into the Grove Shield's A0 jack
  var rotary = new five.Sensor("A0");

  // Plug the Servo module
  // into the Grove Shield's D5 jack
  var servo = new five.Servo(5);

  // Set scaling of the Rotary angle
  // sensor's output to 0-180° (8-bit)
  // range. Set the servo angle in
  // degrees corresponding to the
  // value of the sensor
  rotary.scale(0, 180).on("change", function() {
    servo.to(this.value);
  });
});


Additional Notes

For this program, you'll need: Intel Edison Arduino Breakout Grove Base Shield v2 Grove - Servo Module Grove - Rotary Angle Sensor
