Hi can some one help me under this code? From void setup to Void loop. can someone briefly explain to me that portion. I'm new to arduino. Especially the break and case part and serial available()>0
#include <AFMotor.h>
//creates two objects to control the terminal 3 and 4 of motor shield
AF_DCMotor motor1(1);
AF_DCMotor motor2(2);
char command;
void setup()
{
Serial.begin(9600); //Set the baud rate to your Bluetooth module.
}
void loop(){
if(Serial.available() > 0){
command = Serial.read();
Stop(); //initialize with motors stoped
//Change pin mode only if new command is different from previous.
//Serial.println(command);
switch(command){
case 'F':
forward();
break;
case 'B':
back();
break;
case 'L':
left();
break;
case 'R':
right();
break;
}
}
}
void forward()
{
motor1.setSpeed(255); //Define maximum velocity
motor1.run(FORWARD); //rotate the motor clockwise
motor2.setSpeed(255); //Define maximum velocity
motor2.run(FORWARD); //rotate the motor clockwise
}
void back()
{
motor1.setSpeed(255);
motor1.run(BACKWARD); //rotate the motor counterclockwise
motor2.setSpeed(255);
motor2.run(BACKWARD); //rotate the motor counterclockwise
}
void left()
{
motor1.setSpeed(255); //Define maximum velocity
motor1.run(FORWARD); //rotate the motor clockwise
motor2.setSpeed(0);
motor2.run(RELEASE); //turn motor2 off
}
void right()
{
motor1.setSpeed(0);
motor1.run(RELEASE); //turn motor1 off
motor2.setSpeed(255); //Define maximum velocity
motor2.run(FORWARD); //rotate the motor clockwise
}
void Stop()
{
motor1.setSpeed(0);
motor2.run(RELEASE); //turn motor1 off
motor2.setSpeed(0);
motor2.run(RELEASE); //turn motor2 off
}
