Class «motor»

This article is automatically translated from Russian by Google Translator.

Provides control of the robot motor (power or servo motor) connected to ports M1, ..., M4, S1, ..., S6.

Method	Description
brake	Blocking of motors for braking for a specified time.
power	Returns the current motor power.
powerOff	Turns the motor off.
setPower	Turns on the motor with the specified power.

brake

Blocking of motors for braking for a specified time in milliseconds.

Syntax

JavaScript

brick.motor(motorName).brake(durationMs);
brick.motor("motorName").brake(durationMs);

Python

brick.motor(motorName).brake(durationMs);
brick.motor("motorName").brake(durationMs);

As a parameter, you must specify the time in milliseconds.

power

Returns the current motor power (-100 to 100).

Syntax

JavaScript

var pow1 = brick.motor(motorName).power();
var pow2 = brick.motor("motorName").power();

Python

pow1 = brick.motor(motorName).power();
pow2 = brick.motor("motorName").power();

powerOff

Turns the motor off.

Syntax

JavaScript

brick.motor(motorName).powerOff();
brick.motor("motorName").powerOff();

Python

brick.motor(motorName).powerOff();
brick.motor("motorName").powerOff();

setPower

Turns on the motor with the specified power.

Syntax

JavaScript

brick.motor(motorName).setPower(power);
brick.motor("motorName").setPower(power);

Python

brick.motor(motorName).setPower(power);
brick.motor("motorName").setPower(power);

As a parameter, you must specify the power. The power is set in the range from -100 ("full reverse") to 100 ("full forward"). 0 corresponds to a force break, i.e. the motor stops, it is blocked and remains energized.
