POWER
Syntax
power motor,duty,accel
Motor - is a variable, constant or expression that species which motor to access.
Duty - is a variable, constant or expression that sets the duty to run the motor at.
Accel - is a variable, constant or expression that sets the acceleration/decceleration to
use when the motor powers up/down to the specied power.
Description
The POWER command is used to control a motor using just a PWM duty cycle percentage. This is
the simplest method of controlling a DC motor but does not compensate for changes in the load
on the motor.

power 0,0,32767 ;should take 1 second to deccel to 0% power.
