Smart Servo Shield on Arduino Mega

Hello,

I was wondering if it is possible to use the Smart Servo Shield on an Arduino Mega 2560? I have attempted to upload the example code but, I can only get responses using an Arduino Uno. I believe it probably has something to the with the #include_arduino.h. I was hoping I could obtain an example of the Smart Servo Shield controlling AX-12 Servos on an Arduino Mega. Any help will be much appreciated.

Thanks

But yesterday i bought and tried with a UNO and still not work.
Can you please check this forum, post : http://forum.arduino.cc/index.php?topic=269159.0
and tell me if i plug correctly ?

It's will be so nice if i can understand. :'(
Many thanks in advance

2014-03-25 20:06:57 I connect the AX-12A servos directly to the shield as is described in the wiki. The shield is then connected directly to the Arduino Mega. I powered the Arduino and the  Smart Servo Shield off of a 9.6V power supply connected to the shield's Vin and GND pins as the Smart Servo Shield wiki suggested. I believe the "arduino_pins.h" that is included in the sample sketch is specific to the UNO. I was hoping that another sample sketch could be uploaded that would do the same actions as the sketch just for an Arduino Mega.

Thanks

How do you connect the smart servo?
Here is a wiki about the mega connection diagram.

Maybe it could help you~
