Yes, you are.

What version of CCS are you using?

OK.  Please post the parts of the example that you changed -- the 
#defines at the start, plus any other sections you may have edited. 

You at least needed to have uncommented the line that says:
//#define RC_SERVO_MODE 1
so it looks like this:
#define RC_SERVO_MODE 1

Did you make any changes to ww01_picc_square.h in the #defines affecting 
hardware?  Or are they the defaults?

OK.

OK.

No.
