Wiring:

1. Connect the servo's power supply (Red wire) to a 5V power supply.
2. Connect the servo's ground wire (Black wire) to the Arduino ground.
3. Connect the servo's control lead (Yellow wire) to pin 9 on the Arduino.

Arduino Sweep Servo Code:

#include "Servo.h"

Servo myservo;  // create servo object to control a servo
int pos = 0;    // variable to store the servo position

void setup() {
  myservo.attach(9);  // attaches the servo on pin 9 to the servo object
}

void loop() {
  for (pos = 0; pos <= 180; pos += 1) {  // goes from 0 degrees to 180 degrees
    myservo.write(pos);                  // tell servo to go to position in variable 'pos'
    delay(15);                           // waits 15ms for the servo to reach the position
  }
  for (pos = 180; pos >= 0; pos -= 1) {  // goes from 180 degrees to 0 degrees
    myservo.write(pos);                  // tell servo to go to position in variable 'pos'
    delay(15);                           // waits 15ms for the servo to reach the position
  }
