/**
 * @note To use this library (based on Arduino IDE 1.03):
 * 
 * 1. Open this sketch in the Arduino IDE 
 *    (http://arduino.cc/en/Main/Software)  
 * 2. Set the desired degrees using POSITION below.
 * 3. Set the servo pin you attached the signal to in
 *    step two using SERVOPIN below.
 * 4. Select your Arduino Board & Serial Port from the 
 *    Tools menu.
 * 5. Click the Verify (checkbox) button to ensure you
 *    are not receiving any errors.  If everything looks
 *    good, click the Upload (right arrow) to load the code
 *    on to your Arduino board.
 * 6. Next, wire your servo the Arduino using jumper wires.
 *    Servo writes are usually: Red = 5V, Black = ground, 
 *    White = Signal)
 * 7. After the servo is attached, PRESS THE ARDUINO RESET
 *    BUTTON.  The servo should sweep to the minimum 
 *    position (0), then the maximum position (180), and 
 *    finally move to your desired position you set in step
 *    two.  You need to remove the servo or power down the
 *    Arduino within 60 seconds or the calibration loop will
 *    run again.
 * 
 * PROTIP: If you are setting a large number of servos, I 
 * recommend connecting a servo extension wire to the 
 * Arduino so you can quickly connect and disconnect servos 
 * without rewiring three separate jumper wires.
