Car Seat Scenario






Macro reference

CurrentSenseMotor1

Fc9-comp-macro.png CurrentSenseMotor1
This macro is used to sense the current draw from DC motor 1. When it is not being used, it will draw no current. In normal operating conditions it will draw 3A, and under stall conditions (when the motor hits the end stops) it will draw 20A.
