Property reference
|
Properties |
|
Control Type |
|
Control Method |
| Controls how the motor is controlled. On/Off requires output pins PWM requires a hardware PWM channel H-Bridge requires a hardware H-Bridge channel | |
|
|
Bridge Type |
|
|
Enable Method |
| Decides how the motor outputs are enabled. | |
|
|
Connections |
|
PinA |
| First control pin - set 'pattern' properties below to set the pin's function. | |
|
|
PinB |
| Second control pin - set 'pattern' properties below to set the pin's function. | |
|
|
Forwards Pattern |
| The state of pins A and B required to drive the motor in a forwards direction. | |
|
|
Reverse Pattern |
| States of pins A and B required to drive the motor in a reverse direction. | |
|
|
Coast Pattern |
| States of pins A and B required to stop the motor. | |
|
|
Brake Pattern |
| States of pins A and B required to stop the motor. | |
|
|
Simulation Settings |
|
Speed |
| Speed of the motor when turned on. Positive speed -> Counter-clockwsie Negative speed -> Clockwise | |
|
|
Acceleration |
| Speed change per second when the motor us powered. Set to zero for instantaneous speed changes. | |
|
|
Deceleration |
| Speed change per second when the motor is coasting with no power. Set to zero for instantaneous speed changes. | |
|
Show Actuator |
| When active, an actuator is shown on the motor spindle to make the animation easier to observe. | |
|
|
Forwards Direction |
| Which way the motor will rotate when the 'forwards' command is sent. | |
|
|
Linkage |
|
Target Object |
| An object or group to link the motor to - the object will move along with the motor. | |
