Stepper Motor
Double-click on the Stepper object, labelled {{{2}}}, in order to run the example: [[Image:{{{1}}}_Stepper_Example.jpg|center|link=]]
General information about the selected object will be displayed at the top of the window. You can also experiment with the following functionality:
- Toggle the Engage button to provide power to the motor coils.
- By default, motor position, velocity, and acceleration are measured in sixteenths of a step. If you want to use different units, change the value in the Rescale Factor textbox.
- Use the Target Position slider to set a new target position. Change the Acceleration and Velocity sliders to speed up or slow down the {{{1}}}'s approach.
- When the {{{1}}} is no longer issuing commands to the motor, it will update the Stoppped? checkbox.
- Select the Velocity (Continuous) Control tab for continuous rotation instead of specifiying a position.
