15.8.2. Step 2#

15.8.3. Reference#

from microbit import *
from enum import *
from fans import *
fans = FANS(J1)
while True:
    fans.set_fans(1,100)
    sleep(3000)
    fans.set_fans(1,50)
    sleep(3000)
    fans.set_fans(0)
    sleep(3000)

15.8.4. Result#

After powering on, the Motor fan module rotates for 3 seconds at the speed of 100% first and then at the speed of 50% for another 3 seconds, and finally stops for 3 seconds.
