Syntax Error when using adafruit_servokit

[emazitis]

im trying to turn a servo with a PCA9685 board following a tutorial and when i run the code:

from adafruit_servokit import ServoKit
myKit=ServoKit(channels=16)
myKit.servo[0].angle=90

i get a syntax error:

katyusha@katyusha-desktop:~/Desktop/programong$ /usr/bin/python3 /home/katyusha/Desktop/programong/test.py

Any ideas?

Sorry for the late response.
Is this still an issue to support? Any result can be shared?

Are you using the devkit or custom board for Jetson Nano?
What’s your Jetpack version in use?

It seems the error coming from your python script (test.py).
Please also request your vendor of PCA9685 for the detailed steps to setup/run the script.

Im using the developer kit, test.py is the 3 lines of code I provided in the first post, I’ll try getting new PCA9685 boards from a trusted seller as i bought mine quite a while ago, but i’m not sure that would cause a syntax error.

Edit: The problem seems to have gone away. The only thing I remember changing is getting Jetpack version 4.6-b197 from Pytorch I believe and repeating Paul McWhorter’s tutorial again.
