in what context ?

I know servo driven cnc machines, or mixed
(servos on x and y and a stepper on Z for example)

they have servo axis winking smiley

And some controllers use a 1byte mask (in the communication protocol) to identify the servo to be driven,
but still, I don't see any context with reprap

Are you talking about the Tom's RC SC-8000 8-channel USB servo controller?

If so, read this: [www.tti-us.com]

You use the bits in the mask to specify which of the 8 RC servo channels you want to control. Each control message can separately control any combination of the eights servo channels.
