Using the below Servo Diagram I'm curious about how servo #1 and servo #2 knows which one is being directed to move? 

If servo #1 is pitch and it gets a command to move how does servo #2 know not to move?? The wires are match connected to both servos.

I've done wiring using diagrams and schematics which is not difficult, but looking at this diagram there is no separation between the two servos in operation. :-?

Just trying to learn something.
Thanks

The communication bus is digital, and each servo has a unique serial number. So the digital bus tells serial number 1 to move and serial number 2 ignores the command.

It "learns" which one is pitch and roll when you do the initial setup. The setup tells you to move the controls in a certain order and this teaches it which servo serial number is connected to your pitch controls and which is connected to roll.
