Arduino Toolkit - arduinoioaddons.SimpleStepper.SimpleStepper
- : arduinoioaddons.SimpleStepper
Stepper class for stepper control using ULN2003 and compatible drivers
Properties
- Id
Id of the stepper (Read only)
- Speed
Number of steps to do per second.
- Status
Status of stepper (Read only). 0 = not moving, 1 = moving, 2 = rotating
- Parent
the Arduino parent (read only)
- Pins
the pins used for the stepper (read only)
Methods
- :
obj =SimpleStepper(aObj,pin1, pin2, pin3, pin4) - :
obj =SimpleStepper(aObj,pin1, pin2, pin3, pin4, pin5) Constructor to create a stepper object
Inputs
aObj - The arduino
pin1 - The first pin of the controller
pin2 - The second pin of the controller
pin3 - The third pin of the controller
pin4 - The fourth pin of the controller
pin5 - The fifth pin of the controller
Outputs
s - a simplestepper object
Example
a = arduino() # create stepper object s = addon(a, "simplestepper/simplestepper", "d2", "d3", "d4", "d5") # start rotating left s.rotate(-1);See also: addon.
- : move(sObj,
steps) Move the motor the specified number of steps using the configured Speed.
Inputs
sObj - the stepper object
steps - the number of steps to move. steps less than 0 will be moving left.
Outputs
None
See also: rotate.
- : rotate(sObj,
dir) Start steppermotor moving in the specified direction using the configured Speed.
Inputs
sObj - the stepper object
dir - Direction to move. -1 = left, 0 = stop, 1 = right.
Outputs
None
See also: move.
