The `pwm` driver allows you to use [some GPIO pins](https://pinout.xyz/pinout/pwm) on the Raspberry Pi for PWM. The `pwm` driver allows you to use [some GPIO pins](https://pinout.xyz/pinout/pwm) on the Raspberry Pi for PWM.
!!! note
Due to hardware limitations, this module conflicts with the **kvmd-fan** (PiKVM fan controller).
To use it, you have to use hardware PWM for kvmfan. To do this, add the following lines to `/etc/kvmd/fan.ini`:
```ini
[main]
pwm_soft = 80
```

The `servo` module is built on top of the `pwm` module and allows user to define angles instead of `duty_cyles` to control a PWM enabled servo motor like SG90. When the button is pressed the servo motor moves to an angle defined by `angle_push` and when button is released it moves back to `angle_release`. In the example configuration for a [cheap 5V SG90 Servo](https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/184555802744), the motor moves to an angle of 45 degrees when button is pressed and moves back to 20 degress when released.
