Another Q or 2 about using the servo capabilities of the handy board.

It has been established that the servo motor output is actually digital
output 9 (J2-9) (position numbered 15 (on the silk screen) of connector J2)

1) Is there a separate connection for power, or can I use the power available
from the other J2-9 pins?  (or can I use another motor output (from J4)?)

2) Am I correct in believing PA7 (the control output) is the top pin of J2
position 15?  (The schematic shows it that way, but it also shows PA7
connected to J2-3 (position numbered 9 on the silk screen)).

Thanks,

  Dirk
