-In the main function, the first step is to connect the Analog Discovery 2. If it can't be connected, the program must be finished, as the rest of the functions can't be called. The function init_AD2() is discussed under the [[reference:test-and-measurement:analog-discovery-2:ad2-motor-debugger:start#functions_for_controlling_different_instruments|Functions for Controlling Different Instruments]] heading, in the Connecting and Disconnecting the Analog Discovery 2 drop-down.+In the main function, the first step is to connect the Analog Discovery 2.

-To test the motor drivers, the microcontroller must be turned off by setting it's RESET pin to low. After that, the voltages on the potentiometers can be read, and the digital_write() and PWM generation functions can be used to test both motors with varying speeds, in both directions. Details about the used functions can be found under the [[reference:test-and-measurement:analog-discovery-2:ad2-motor-debugger:start#functions_for_controlling_different_instruments|Functions for Controlling Different Instruments]] heading, in the Voltmeter, Static I/O and Pattern Generator drop-downs.+To test the motor drivers, the microcontroller must be turned off by setting it's RESET pin to low.

-To record the signals coming from the MCU, it must be turned on, by setting its RESET pin to logic high. After this, the number of samples to record must be specified (data_size), and a matrix with the proper size (digital_data) must be created before recording the data. After the acquisition, data loss/corruption should be checked, then the recordings should be saved in a file. Details about the digital_read() function can be found under the [[reference:test-and-measurement:analog-discovery-2:ad2-motor-debugger:start#functions_for_controlling_different_instruments|Functions for Controlling Different Instruments]] heading, in the Logic Analyzer drop-down.+To record the signals coming from the MCU, it must be turned on, by setting its RESET pin to logic high.
