Motor direction invertion

[r_teixeir]

Hi all, I design a 3D drawing simulation of a mechanical arm, and I was able to simulate the invertion of the motor direction following one of the examples from the learning center. However, I was thinking about using diferent pins that is being used on the inputs to invert the direction of the motor and which on my program are the same as the motor output.
As you can see on my program the two inputs of the SW_Micro_Roller are the same pins used to control the output of the motor.

My objective on this program is to increase with more resources but firstly I need to pass the basics for this controll using diferent inputs from the outputs. Does anybody can help me with me with this issue?

Thank you very much

Hi Rod,

Is this the type of thing your after?

Yes Benj thank you very much! I was actually looking for a momentary switch and I kind of was trapped on this sensor inputs and i wasnt able to simulate the invertion. I attached some pics of my prototype design but Iam not sure if this inputs can actually simulate the invertion physically, i did not tried to deploy the program yet.
I was able to do by writing on C using mikroC.

I would like to include in my program an analogic reading of a potentiometer to get the angles of 0 , 90 to 180 degrees using the pivot of the motor on my drawing. I just dont know to include the potentiometer from the eblock available and interact with the animation while it happens the invertion of the motor. Do you have any tips about it? I am asking this because when I tried to include the potentiometer from the eblock, I think Iam only able to do it(reading analogically) by moving the mouse on the potentiometer.

Thanks again for the help

Hi all, I tried many ways on how to create a component using the analog pin. But still Iam having a hard time trying to get data out it.
I just wanted to have a potentiometer linked to the mechanical arm drawn. Considering that the arm inverts from 0° to 180° the potentiometer would read the data showing the position. I was wondering how to create this component and link the objects so when thay are moving data changes?

Please any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks Rod
