ServoFirmata vs StandardFirmata

I'm controlling servos with the StandardFirmata sketch. It works great. However, I want to use ServoFirmata sketch instead since it's less code and from my understanding sufficient to run 4 servos, but it doesn't work. Is there some kind of configuration I need to do for the ServoFirmata sketch to work?

I'm using sending the Servo angle values from NodeRed if that makes a difference to the discussion.

PS- I truly have searched this platform for the answer to my query for nearly 2 hours using keywords "Servo" and "Firmata". Either I'm terrible at searching, or no one has had this issue before. Thanks.

PPS- If you feel that this question has been answered elsewhere, kindly let me know and I shall continue searching.

That, after your search of this site did not gain results has me comforted that I do not know what "StandardFirmata" and "ServoFirmata" mean.

I did find lots of posts about Servos and Firmata, but not specifically my issue. Mostly where ServoFirmata and Processing work fine, but StandardFirmata doesn't. This is what most people had issues with.

My issue is however a little different, wherein I am not using Processing and, the sketch Standard Firmata works fine, but ServoFirmata does not.

Thanks.
