using grove stuff , how to find all commands available

Projects General Guidance
1

Dear all,
I am new to Arduino but very impressed from the possibilities.

I got an Uno with grove shield and grove stuff like digital light sensor, analog light sensor , buttons, temperature sensors, ic2 rgb lcd, i2c motor shield, LEDs etc.

The difficulty for me is to find out from the documentation the commands which can be used . Learning from the examples leaves still some questions.

How can I find out from the imported library which commands are available and how they have to be used?

E.g. I am looking for the speed of the grove I2c motor shield if the speed can be set for the stepper motor? v 1.3

I am using a watchdog and I am about to use eeprom to store data using menu etc. , so some knowledge is available :wink: .

thanks in advance for your help,

Can you post a link to the Grove website where you got the stuff?

Better still, post links to the datasheets for the specific items you have.

Have you read the documentation? https://github.com/Seeed-Studio/Grove_I2C_Motor_Driver_v1_3

Thanks a lot, I have read it of course, but somehow I expected a speed setting for the stepper motor.

It isn't the case !!!, shame on me.

opening the .h files and .cpp with winword showed it also readable, never the less this was still somehow to advanced for me .

I also have the GitHub - Seeed-Studio/Grove_LCD_RGB_Backlight: Seeedstudio, Grove - LCD RGB Backlight

never the less I missed somehow that instead of clear() it should be lcd.clear() , I found that eventually.

Good part, on my search I learned what typecast is which I was looking for a loooooong time.

thanks for your time and HELP!!

but somehow I expected a speed setting for the stepper motor.

The speed of a stepper motor is determined by the interval between step pulses.

Have a look at this Simple Stepper Code
