[Icon-tech] Developer Question

[Marc Mulcahy]

Write to /proc/everest/motor

Writing a 1 to /proc/everest/motor will turn it on, writing a 0 will turn it
off.

Additionally, if you wan to turn it on for a specific period, write "1
<msecs>" to /proc/everest/motor.  So, for example, if you want it to vibe
for half a second, do:

Echo "1 500" > /proc/everest/motor
