MotionMagicVelocityVoltage Class

Requests Motion Magic® to target a final velocity using a motion profile. This allows smooth transitions between velocity set points. Users can optionally provide a voltage feedforward.

Motion Magic® Velocity produces a motion profile in real-time while attempting to honor the specified Acceleration and Jerk value. If the specified acceleration is zero, the Acceleration under Motion Magic® configuration parameter is used instead. This allows for runtime adjustment of acceleration for advanced users. Jerk is also specified in the Motion Magic® persistent configuration values. If Jerk is set to zero, Motion Magic® will produce a trapezoidal acceleration profile. Target velocity can also be changed on-the-fly and Motion Magic® will do its best to adjust the profile. This control mode is voltage-based, so relevant closed-loop gains will use Volts for the numerator.

MotionMagicVelocityVoltage Requests Motion Magic® to target a final velocity using a motion profile. This allows smooth transitions between velocity set points. Users can optionally provide a voltage feedforward.

Motion Magic® Velocity produces a motion profile in real-time while attempting to honor the specified Acceleration and Jerk value. If the specified acceleration is zero, the Acceleration under Motion Magic® configuration parameter is used instead. This allows for runtime adjustment of acceleration for advanced users. Jerk is also specified in the Motion Magic® persistent configuration values. If Jerk is set to zero, Motion Magic® will produce a trapezoidal acceleration profile. Target velocity can also be changed on-the-fly and Motion Magic® will do its best to adjust the profile. This control mode is voltage-based, so relevant closed-loop gains will use Volts for the numerator. Velocity Target velocity to drive toward in rotations per second. This can be changed on-the fly. Acceleration This is the absolute Acceleration to use generating the profile. If this parameter is zero, the Acceleration persistent configuration parameter is used instead. Acceleration is in rotations per second squared. If nonzero, the signage does not matter as the absolute value is used. EnableFOC Set to true to use FOC commutation (requires Phoenix Pro), which increases peak power by ~15%. Set to false to use trapezoidal commutation. FOC improves motor performance by leveraging torque (current) control. However, this may be inconvenient for applications that require specifying duty cycle or voltage. CTR-Electronics has developed a hybrid method that combines the performances gains of FOC while still allowing applications to provide duty cycle or voltage demand. This not to be confused with simple sinusoidal control or phase voltage control which lacks the performance gains. FeedForward Feedforward to apply in volts Slot Select which gains are applied by selecting the slot. Use the configuration api to set the gain values for the selected slot before enabling this feature. Slot must be within [0,2]. OverrideBrakeDurNeutral Set to true to static-brake the rotor when output is zero (or within deadband). Set to false to use the NeutralMode configuration setting (default). This flag exists to provide the fundamental behavior of this control when output is zero, which is to provide 0V to the motor.

Properties

Acceleration This is the absolute Acceleration to use generating the profile. If this parameter is zero, the Acceleration persistent configuration parameter is used instead. Acceleration is in rotations per second squared. If nonzero, the signage does not matter as the absolute value is used.
ConfigTimeout The timeout when sending configs associated with this control
ControlInfo Plain old data container holding name-value pairs of the control request parameters
(Inherited from ControlRequest)
EnableFOC Set to true to use FOC commutation (requires Phoenix Pro), which increases peak power by ~15%. Set to false to use trapezoidal commutation. FOC improves motor performance by leveraging torque (current) control. However, this may be inconvenient for applications that require specifying duty cycle or voltage.

Slot Select which gains are applied by selecting the slot. Use the configuration api to set the gain values for the selected slot before enabling this feature. Slot must be within [0,2].
UpdateFreqHz The period at which this control will update at. This is designated in Hertz, with a minimum of 20 Hz (every 50 ms) and a maximum of 1000 Hz (every 1 ms).

If this field is set to 0 Hz, the control request will be sent immediately as a one-shot frame. This may be useful for advanced applications that require outputs to be synchronized with data acquisition. In this case, we recommend not exceeding 50 ms between control calls.

Velocity Target velocity to drive toward in rotations per second. This can be changed on-the fly.

Methods

EqualsDetermines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.
(Inherited from Object)
FinalizeAllows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection.
(Inherited from Object)
ForceApplyConfigs Forces configs to be applied the next time this is used in a setControl.

This is not necessary in the majority of cases, because Phoenix will make sure configs are properly set when they are not already set

GetHashCodeServes as the default hash function.
(Inherited from Object)
GetTypeGets the Type of the current instance.
(Inherited from Object)
MemberwiseCloneCreates a shallow copy of the current Object.
(Inherited from Object)
SendRequest Sends this request out over CAN bus to the device for the device to apply.
(Overrides ControlRequestSendRequest(String, UInt32, Boolean))
ToString Provides the string representation of this object
(Overrides ObjectToString)
WithUpdateFreqHz Sets the period at which this control will update at. This is designated in Hertz, with a minimum of 20 Hz (every 50 ms) and a maximum of 1000 Hz (every 1 ms).

If this field is set to 0 Hz, the control request will be sent immediately as a one-shot frame. This may be useful for advanced applications that require outputs to be synchronized with data acquisition. In this case, we recommend not exceeding 50 ms between control calls.
