Function Documentation

void NXT::Motor::BrakeOff	(	Comm::NXTComm *	comm,
		int	port
	)

Tells a motor to turn the brake off.

Parameters:

port

The port that you wish to turn the brake off. Can be the numbers 0-2 or OUT_A, OUT_B, or OUT_C.

void NXT::Motor::BrakeOn	(	Comm::NXTComm *	comm,
		int	port
	)

Tells a motor to turn the brake on.

Parameters:

port

The port that you wish to turn the brake on. Can be the numbers 0-2 or OUT_A, OUT_B, or OUT_C.

int NXT::Motor::GetRotationCount	(	Comm::NXTComm *	comm,
		int	port
	)

Returns the rotation of a motor.

Parameters:

port

The port that you wish to retrieve the rotation. Can be the numbers 0-2 or OUT_A, OUT_B, or OUT_C.

Returns:

The rotation of the motor in degrees.

void NXT::Motor::GoTo	(	Comm::NXTComm *	comm,
		int	port,
		int	power,
		int	tacho,
		bool	brake
	)

Tells a motor to go to a certian angle and then stop.

Parameters:

	port	The port that you wish to set. Can be the numbers 0-2 or OUT_A, OUT_B, or OUT_C.
	power	The power level (0-100) that you want the motor to recieve.
	tacho	The rotation count (in degrees) that you want the motor to turn to.
	brake	Whether or not you want the motor to brake or float when it is done turning.

void NXT::Motor::ResetRotationCount	(	Comm::NXTComm *	comm,
		int	port,
		bool	relative
	)

Resets the specified motor's rotation count.

Parameters:

	port	The port that you wish to reset the rotation. Can be the numbers 0-2 or OUT_A, OUT_B, or OUT_C.
	relative	If true it resets the rotation relative to the last movement. If false it resets the rotation to its absolute position.

void NXT::Motor::SetForward	(	Comm::NXTComm *	comm,
		int	port,
		int	power
	)

Sets a motor to turn forward at a specified power.

Parameters:

	port	The port that you wish to set. Can be the numbers 0-2 or OUT_A, OUT_B, or OUT_C.
	power	The power level (0-100) that you want the motor to recieve.

void NXT::Motor::SetReverse	(	Comm::NXTComm *	comm,
		int	port,
		int	power
	)

Sets a motor to turn backward at a specified power.

Parameters:

	port	The port that you wish to set. Can be the numbers 0-2 or OUT_A, OUT_B, or OUT_C.
	power	The power level (0-100) that you want the motor to recieve.

void NXT::Motor::Stop	(	Comm::NXTComm *	comm,
		int	port,
		bool	brake
	)

Tells a motor to stop turning.

Parameters:

	port	The port that you wish to turn off. Can be the numbers 0-2 or OUT_A, OUT_B, or OUT_C.
	brake	Whether or not you want the motor to brake or float.
