How to define...?

I'm using the Hi-Technic IR-Link to control 6 motors, and want to assign a name to each one so that I don't have to remember the channel and port their on. An example command:


	Code: PFMotor(PneumSwtch, (ePWMMotorCommand)7);//with name. PFMotor(pfmotor_S1_C1_A, (ePWMMotorCommand)7);//without name.

I've tried, but I really have no idea what to do. I think I would use #define, but I don't know how. Can anyone help me?

Re: How to define...?

You could declare it like this:


	Code: tPFmotor PneumSwtch = pfmotor_S2_C1_A; PFMotor(PneumSwtch, MOTOR_FWD_PWM_7);

I haven't tested this. In fact, I had completely forgotten that you could even do this with my IRLink driver, haha. I had to look at the code to see how it worked
