Fc9-void-icon.png - VOID Return


Property reference

Fc9-prop-icon.png Properties
Fc9-conn-icon.png Control Type
Fc9-type-16-icon.png 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 
Fc9-type-16-icon.png Bridge Type
 
Fc9-type-16-icon.png Enable Method
Decides how the motor outputs are enabled. 
Fc9-conn-icon.png Connections
Fc9-type-5-icon.png PinA
First control pin - set 'pattern' properties below to set the pin's function. 
Fc9-type-5-icon.png PinB
Second control pin - set 'pattern' properties below to set the pin's function. 
Fc9-type-16-icon.png Forwards Pattern
The state of pins A and B required to drive the motor in a forwards direction. 
Fc9-type-16-icon.png Reverse Pattern
States of pins A and B required to drive the motor in a reverse direction. 
Fc9-type-16-icon.png Coast Pattern
States of pins A and B required to stop the motor. 
Fc9-type-16-icon.png Brake Pattern
States of pins A and B required to stop the motor. 
Fc9-conn-icon.png Simulation Settings
Fc9-type-15-icon.png Speed
Speed of the motor when turned on. Positive speed -> Counter-clockwsie Negative speed -> Clockwise  
Fc9-type-15-icon.png Acceleration
Speed change per second when the motor us powered. Set to zero for instantaneous speed changes.  
Fc9-type-15-icon.png Deceleration
Speed change per second when the motor is coasting with no power. Set to zero for instantaneous speed changes. 
Fc9-type-7-icon.png Show Actuator
When active, an actuator is shown on the motor spindle to make the animation easier to observe. 
Fc9-type-16-icon.png Forwards Direction
Which way the motor will rotate when the 'forwards' command is sent. 
Fc9-conn-icon.png Linkage
Fc9-type-17-icon.png Target Object
An object or group to link the motor to - the object will move along with the motor.
