Default Digital servo driver not working?

Hi All.

I am making a DIY camera slider for my partner's birthday, motorizing it based on instructions on the JuicedLink website.

I bought a Hitec HS-5645MG Digital Servo from Servo City and a Custom Electronics Digital Servo Driver from Phils Hobby Shop.

I put them together with a 4.8V battery pack today, and although the servo runs (powered through the driver), it turns on automatically and the driver doesn't control its speed at all, nor does it turn the servo on or off. Basically it seems like the Driver is completely non-functional, apart from routing power into the servo.

Is there something I can do to make the driver work, or does it sound like there's something wrong with it?

Thanks for any help!
Rebecca.
