API

stepmotor1.g_code('')

• Sends a G-code command to the stepper motor controller. This is typically used to control the stepper motor to execute complex paths or operations.

module.get(module.STEP_MOTOR, 0x70)

• Initializes the stepper motor and sets its I2C address to 0x70. This is the address used for communication between the stepper motor and the controller.

stepmotor1.lock_motor()

• Locks the stepper motor, preventing it from moving when not unlocked. This is typically used to ensure the motor is in a stable state before executing operations.

stepmotor1.turn(x=0,  y=0, z=0, speed=0)

• Controls the stepper motor to move in the X, Y, and Z directions, with speed determined by the Speed parameter. This block allows precise control of the stepper motor's movement.

stepmotor1.set_mode("distance")

• Sets the stepper motor mode to "distance" mode. This means the motor's movement will be based on the specified distance rather than other modes (such as speed mode).

stepmotor1.unlock_motor()

• Unlocks the stepper motor, allowing it to move freely. This block is typically used to unlock the motor after the operation is completed.
