function cmd_dcmotor_release(h,motor_no) // Command to release pins which have setup for DC motor // // Calling Sequence // cmd_dcmotor_release(h,motor_no) // // Parameters // h : Board number, reserved for future use. For this version, any number would do // motor_no : ID in which the motor has been connected // // Description // Arduino board does not deliver enough power, so it is necessary to use a H-bridge circuit/IC to control the motor. There are several types of H-bridge IC that do not all operate on the same principle. For example, the L298 requires the use of a PWM signal with current sense. The L293 uses two PWM to set the speed and direction. Ready-to-use Shields are also available. // // Remember that the PWM is 8-bit (0 to 255). The input of the block could accept any value, but it would saturate at +- 255. // // Examples // ok = open_serial(1,9,115200) // cmd_dcmotor_setup(1,3,1,9,10) // Setup DC motor of type 3 (L293), motor 1, pin 9 and 10 // cmd_dcmotor_run(1,1,255) // sleep(1000) // cmd_dcmotor_run(1,1,-255) // sleep(1000) // cmd_dcmotor_release(1,1) // close_serial(1) // See also // cmd_dcmotor_setup // cmd_dcmotor_release // // Authors // Bruno JOFRET, Tan C.L. // code_sent="M"+ascii(48+motor_no)+"1"+ascii(0); write_serial(h,code_sent,4); code_sent="M"+ascii(48+motor_no)+"r"; write_serial(h,code_sent,3) endfunction
