hello im trying to move my OWI robotic arm with the Adafruit Motor shield . i’m trying to understand the code in the example but i don’t seem to find a way to just move 1 motor for a sec or 2. anyone have any idea??? any help would be great.
oh here is a copy of the code.
// Adafruit Motor shield library

// this code is public domain, enjoy!#include <AFMotor.h>
AF_DCMotor motor(4);
void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600); // set up Serial library at 9600 bps
Serial.println(“Motor test!”);// turn on motor
motor.setSpeed(200);motor.run(RELEASE);
}void loop() {
uint8_t i;Serial.print(“tick”);
motor.run(FORWARD);
for (i=0; i<255; i++) {
motor.setSpeed(i);
delay(10);
}for (i=255; i!=0; i–) {
motor.setSpeed(i);
delay(10);
}Serial.print(“tock”);
motor.run(BACKWARD);
for (i=0; i<255; i++) {
motor.setSpeed(i);
delay(10);
}for (i=255; i!=0; i–) {
motor.setSpeed(i);
delay(10);
}Serial.print(“tech”);
motor.run(RELEASE);
delay(1000);
}
