Parameters
- This macro has no parameters
Return value
Encoder2
Returns value is equal to Front Z Axis current value.
Parameters
- This macro has no parameters
Return value
Encoder1

Parameters
- This macro has no parameters
Return value
CurrentSenseMotor3
This macro is used to sense the current draw from DC motor 3. 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.
Parameters
- This macro has no parameters
Return value
CurrentSenseMotor2
This macro is used to sense the current draw from DC motor 2. 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.
Parameters
- This macro has no parameters
Return value
Motor3
Controls the Movement of the seat going up and down by the back
Parameters
- BYTE Direction
- 0 = Stop, 1 = Up, 2 = Down
Return value
- This call does not return a value
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.
Parameters
- This macro has no parameters
Return value
Motor2
Controls the Movement of the seat going up and down by the front
Parameters
- BYTE Direction
- 0 = Stop, 1 = Up, 2 = Down
Return value
- This call does not return a value
Motor1
Moves the Car Seat Forwards and Backwards
Parameters
