Generating A Beat

To make the generate a beat we use the generate beat command

• actuatorName.generateBeat(strikeTime,beatTime);

beatTime is the total time between beats in milliseconds

strikeTime is the time the actuator is striking each beat

• it takes about 50ms for the actuator to strike, any time less than this may not have a sound.

To make the actuator stop the beat use

• actuatorName.stopBeat();

To use advanced features like beat generation you must include an update function call in the loop

• actuatorName.update();
