<Command>
<Name>servo spin &lt; velocity &gt; [ [ &lt; acceleration &gt; ] ]</Name>
<Description>
<DescriptionText><text>
This command moves the servo from its current velocity to a new velocity.
The velocity is specified in mm/sec and may be positive (to move toward the
'away' position) or negative (to move toward the 'home' position).  The
servo is aware of its current velocity and performs the necessary
acceleration to achieve the new velocity.

<Notes>
<DescriptionText><text>
The servo will continue to move at the specified velocity until another
'move', 'stop', 'moveto' or 'idle' command is issued or until a 'home' or 'away'
travel limit is encountered (which will immediately stop the servo with a
resultant loss of positioning).
</text></DescriptionText>
<DescriptionText><text>
A command to 'move' suggests a destination.  There is in fact no destination
involved in a move command.  The command simply creates changes in servo
velocity (including initial velocities of zero). This is a historical command
naming inaccuracy that would create more confusion than clarity if changed.

<DescriptionText><text>
To position the servo a specific location use the 'moveto' command.
