SB Components Motor-Shield Java API

Disclaimer : Not the offical API for this shield, the original is on python and in the link : Original API If you want the original manual go here : Manual

How it works

Motor m1 = Motors.MOTOR_1; // Get the motor Can be MOTOR_2 , MOTOR_3 or MOTOR_4  
 
m1.forward(100); //Tell the motor to go forward at the speed of 100% (Anything higher will be the same)  
m1.stop(); //Tell the motor to stop, it will set his speed to 0
m1.reverse(100); // Tell the motor to go in reverse at the speed of 100%  
 
m1.unBound(); //Unbound the motor, it will released all the pin and can be recreate to work

Here you have the basics of the API, you can create more complexe one :

Motor m1 = Motors.MOTOR_1;  
Motor m2 = Motors.MOTOR_2;  
Motor m3 = Motors.MOTOR_3;  
Motor m4 = Motors.MOTOR_4;  
//Create all motors  
  
LinkedMotors all = new LinkedMotors(m1, m2, m3, m4); // Create a list with all the motors  
  
all.forward(100); // Tell all motors to move forward at a speed of 100%  
all.stop(); //Tell all motors to stop, it will set their speed to 0  
all.reverse(100); // Tell all motors to go on reverse at a speed of 100%

or

Motor m1 = Motors.MOTOR_1;  
Motor m2 = Motors.MOTOR_2;  
Motor m3 = Motors.MOTOR_3;  
Motor m4 = Motors.MOTOR_4;  
//Create all motors  
  
InvertedMotors motorsList = new InvertedMotors();  
motorsList.addReverse(m2);  
motorsList.addReverse(m3);  
motorsList.addGoodWay(m1);  
motorsList.addGoodWay(m4);  
// Create a list with all the motors  
  
motorsList.forward(100); // Tell all motors m1 and m4 to go forward and tell m2 and m3 to go on reverse  
motorsList.stop(); //Tell all motors to stop, it will set their speed to 0  
motorsList.reverse(100); // Tell all motors m1 and m4 to go on reverse and tell m2 and m3 to go forward

The last exemple can be usefull if you have a 4 motor setup and all the motors cannot be on the same direction
