All Implemented Interfaces:

public class DifferentialVelocityDutyCycle
extends ControlRequest
implements Cloneable
Request PID to target velocity with a differential position setpoint.

This control mode will set the motor's velocity setpoint to the velocity specified by the user. It will also set the motor's differential position setpoint to the specified position.

  • Field Details

    • TargetVelocity

      public double TargetVelocity
      Average velocity to drive toward in rotations per second.

    • DifferentialPosition

      public double DifferentialPosition
      Differential position to drive toward in rotations.

    • EnableFOC

      public boolean 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.

    • TargetSlot

      public int TargetSlot
      Select which gains are applied to the primary controller 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].

    • DifferentialSlot

      public int DifferentialSlot
      Select which gains are applied to the differential controller 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

      public boolean 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.

    • LimitForwardMotion

      public boolean LimitForwardMotion
      Set to true to force forward limiting. This allows users to use other limit switch sensors connected to robot controller. This also allows use of active sensors that require external power.

    • LimitReverseMotion

      public boolean LimitReverseMotion
      Set to true to force reverse limiting. This allows users to use other limit switch sensors connected to robot controller. This also allows use of active sensors that require external power.

    • UpdateFreqHz

      public double 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.
