Usage

MotorWing motorWing;

public override Task Initialize()
{
    Console.WriteLine("Initializing ...");

    var i2CBus = Device.CreateI2cBus(I2cBusSpeed.FastPlus);
    motorWing = new MotorWing(i2CBus, new Frequency(100, Frequency.UnitType.Hertz), 0x61);
    motorWing.Initialize();

    return Task.CompletedTask;
}

public override async Task Run()
{
    //Get DC motor 1
    var dcMotor1 = motorWing.GetMotor(1);

    //Get DC motor 2
    var dcMotor2 = motorWing.GetMotor(2);

    //Get Stepper motor number 2
    var stepper = motorWing.GetStepper(2, 200);

    dcMotor1.Run(Commmand.FORWARD);
    dcMotor2.Run(Commmand.BACKWARD);

    while (true)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Speed up");
        for (short i = 0; i <= 255; i++)
        {
            dcMotor1.SetSpeed(i);
            dcMotor2.SetSpeed(i);
            await Task.Delay(10);
        }

        stepper.Step(50);

        await Task.Delay(500);

        Console.WriteLine("Slow down");
        for (short i = 255; i >= 0; i--)
        {
            dcMotor1.SetSpeed(i);
            dcMotor2.SetSpeed(i);
            await Task.Delay(10);
        }

        stepper.Step(-50);

        await Task.Delay(500);
    }
}
