  • Method Details

    • setControl

      Request a specified motor duty cycle.

      This control mode will output a proportion of the supplied voltage which is supplied by the user.

      • DutyCycleOut Parameters:
        • Output: Proportion of supply voltage to apply in fractional units between -1 and +1
        • 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.

        • 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: 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: 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.
        • IgnoreHardwareLimits: Set to true to ignore hardware limit switches and the LimitForwardMotion and LimitReverseMotion parameters, instead allowing motion.

          This can be useful on mechanisms such as an intake/feeder, where a limit switch stops motion while intaking but should be ignored when feeding to a shooter.

          The hardware limit faults and Forward/ReverseLimit signals will still report the values of the limit switches regardless of this parameter.

        • UseTimesync: Set to true to delay applying this control request until a timesync boundary (requires Phoenix Pro and CANivore). This eliminates the impact of nondeterministic network delays in exchange for a larger but deterministic control latency.

          This requires setting the ControlTimesyncFreqHz config in MotorOutputConfigs. Additionally, when this is enabled, the UpdateFreqHz of this request should be set to 0 Hz.

    • setControl

        • Output: Voltage to attempt to drive at
        • EnableFOC: Set to true to use FOC commutation (requires Phoenix Pro), which increases peak power by ~15%. Set to false to use trapezoidal commutation.

Note that unlike the slot gains, the Expo_kV and Expo_kA configs are always in output units of Volts.

      Setting Cruise Velocity to 0 will allow the profile to run to the max possible velocity based on Expo_kV. This control mode does not use the Acceleration or Jerk configs.

      Target position can be changed on-the-fly and Motion Magic® will do its best to adjust the profile. This control mode is duty cycle based, so relevant closed-loop gains will use fractional duty cycle for the numerator: +1.0 represents full forward output.

      • MotionMagicExpoDutyCycle Parameters:
        • Position: Position to drive toward in rotations.
        • 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 fractional units between -1 and +1.
        • 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.
        • 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.

          This can be useful on mechanisms such as an intake/feeder, where a limit switch stops motion while intaking but should be ignored when feeding to a shooter.

          The hardware limit faults and Forward/ReverseLimit signals will still report the values of the limit switches regardless of this parameter.

        • UseTimesync: Set to true to delay applying this control request until a timesync boundary (requires Phoenix Pro and CANivore). This eliminates the impact of nondeterministic network delays in exchange for a larger but deterministic control latency.

        • IgnoreHardwareLimits: Set to true to ignore hardware limit switches and the LimitForwardMotion and LimitReverseMotion parameters, instead allowing motion.

          This can be useful on mechanisms such as an intake/feeder, where a limit switch stops motion while intaking but should be ignored when feeding to a shooter.

          The hardware limit faults and Forward/ReverseLimit signals will still report the values of the limit switches regardless of this parameter.

        • UseTimesync: Set to true to delay applying this control request until a timesync boundary (requires Phoenix Pro and CANivore). This eliminates the impact of nondeterministic network delays in exchange for a larger but deterministic control latency.

          This requires setting the ControlTimesyncFreqHz config in MotorOutputConfigs. Additionally, when this is enabled, the UpdateFreqHz of this request should be set to 0 Hz.

      Parameters:
      request - Control object to request of the device
      Returns:
      Code response of the request
    • setControl

      Requests Motion Magic® to target a final position using a motion profile, and PID to a differential position setpoint.

      Motion Magic® produces a motion profile in real-time while attempting to honor the Cruise Velocity, Acceleration, and (optional) Jerk specified via the Motion Magic® configuration values. This control mode does not use the Expo_kV or Expo_kA configs.

      Target position can be changed on-the-fly and Motion Magic® will do its best to adjust the profile. This control mode is duty cycle based, so relevant closed-loop gains will use fractional duty cycle for the numerator: +1.0 represents full forward output.

      • DifferentialMotionMagicDutyCycle Parameters:
        • TargetPosition: Average position to drive toward in rotations.
        • DifferentialPosition: Differential position to drive toward in rotations.
        • 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: 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: 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: 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: 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: 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.

    • setControl

      Follow the motor output of another Talon.

      If Talon is in torque control, the torque is copied - which will increase the total torque applied. If Talon is in percent supply output control, the duty cycle is matched. Motor direction either matches master's configured direction or opposes it based on OpposeMasterDirection.

      • Follower Parameters:
        • MasterID: Device ID of the master to follow.
        • OpposeMasterDirection: Set to false for motor invert to match the master's configured Invert - which is typical when master and follower are mechanically linked and spin in the same direction. Set to true for motor invert to oppose the master's configured Invert - this is typical where the the master and follower mechanically spin in opposite directions.
      Parameters:
      request - Control object to request of the device
      Returns:
