stop

Stop DC motor connected to MKR Motor Carrier or Nano Motor Carrier

Since R2020a

Add-On Required: This feature requires the MATLAB Support Package for Arduino Hardware add-on.

Syntax

stop(dcmObj)

stop(dcmObj) stops the DC motor.

This example uses:

Create a connection to the Nano Motor Carrier.

arduinoObj = arduino('/dev/ttyACM0','Nano33IoT','Libraries','MotorCarrier');
mcObj = motorCarrier(arduinoObj);

Create a connection to the DC motor M1.

dcmObj = dcmotor(mcObj,'M1')

dcmObj = 
  DCMotor with properties:

    MotorNumber: 'M1'
        Running: 0              
          Speed: 0

Change the speed to 0.2, start the DC motor, and display the motor object.

dcmObj.Speed = 0.3;
start(dcmObj);
dcmObj

dcmObj = 
  DCMotor with properties:

    MotorNumber: 'M1'
        Running: 1              
          Speed: 3.000000e-01

Stop the motor, and display the object.

stop(dcmObj);
dcmObj

dcmObj = 
  DCMotor with properties:

    MotorNumber: 'M1'
        Running: 0              
          Speed: 3.000000e-01

Connection to the DC Motor on MKR Motor Carrier or Nano Motor Carrier, specified as an object.

Introduced in R2020a
