class phoenix6.controls.position_torque_current_foc.PositionTorqueCurrentFOC(position: phoenix6.units.rotation, velocity: phoenix6.units.rotations_per_second = 0.0, feed_forward: phoenix6.units.ampere = 0.0, slot: int = 0, override_coast_dur_neutral: bool = False, limit_forward_motion: bool = False, limit_reverse_motion: bool = False)#

Requires Phoenix Pro; Request PID to target position with torque current feedforward.

This control mode will set the motor’s position setpoint to the position specified by the user. In addition, it will apply an additional torque current as an arbitrary feedforward value.

Parameters:

position (rotation) – Position to drive toward in rotations.
velocity (rotations_per_second) – Velocity to drive toward in rotations per second. This is typically used for motion profiles generated by the robot program.
feed_forward (ampere) – Feedforward to apply in torque current in Amperes. User can use motor’s kT to scale Newton-meter to Amperes.
slot (int) – 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].
override_coast_dur_neutral (bool) – Set to true to coast 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 0A (zero torque).
limit_forward_motion (bool) – 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.
limit_reverse_motion (bool) – 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.

Returns:: Itself
Return type:: PositionTorqueCurrentFOC

with_feed_forward(new_feed_forward: phoenix6.units.ampere) → PositionTorqueCurrentFOC#

Modifies this Control Request’s feed_forward parameter and returns itself for method-chaining and easier to use request API.

Feedforward to apply in torque current in Amperes. User can use motor’s kT to scale Newton-meter to Amperes.

Parameters:: new_feed_forward (ampere) – Parameter to modify
Returns:: Itself
Return type:: PositionTorqueCurrentFOC

with_slot(new_slot: int) → PositionTorqueCurrentFOC#

Modifies this Control Request’s slot parameter and returns itself for method-chaining and easier to use request API.

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].

Parameters:: new_slot (int) – Parameter to modify
Returns:: Itself
Return type:: PositionTorqueCurrentFOC

with_override_coast_dur_neutral(new_override_coast_dur_neutral: bool) → PositionTorqueCurrentFOC#

Modifies this Control Request’s override_coast_dur_neutral parameter and returns itself for method-chaining and easier to use request API.

Set to true to coast 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 0A (zero torque).

Parameters:: new_override_coast_dur_neutral (bool) – Parameter to modify
Returns:: Itself
Return type:: PositionTorqueCurrentFOC

with_limit_forward_motion(new_limit_forward_motion: bool) → PositionTorqueCurrentFOC#

Modifies this Control Request’s limit_forward_motion parameter and returns itself for method-chaining and easier to use request API.

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.

Parameters:: new_limit_forward_motion (bool) – Parameter to modify
Returns:: Itself
Return type:: PositionTorqueCurrentFOC

with_limit_reverse_motion(new_limit_reverse_motion: bool) → PositionTorqueCurrentFOC#

Modifies this Control Request’s limit_reverse_motion parameter and returns itself for method-chaining and easier to use request API.

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.

Parameters:: new_limit_reverse_motion (bool) – Parameter to modify
Returns:: Itself
Return type:: PositionTorqueCurrentFOC

with_update_freq_hz(new_update_freq_hz: phoenix6.units.hertz) → PositionTorqueCurrentFOC#

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.

Parameters:: new_update_freq_hz (hertz) – Parameter to modify
Returns:: Itself
Return type:: PositionTorqueCurrentFOC
