Class ContinuousRotationServoBase

Base class implementation for servos that can rotate continuously.

Assembly: ServoCore.dll
View Source
Declaration
public abstract class ContinuousRotationServoBase : ServoBase, IContinuousRotationServo, IServo

Inheritance: System.Object -> Meadow.Foundation.Servos.ServoBase

Derived:
Meadow.Foundation.Servos.ContinuousRotationServo

Implements:
Meadow.Foundation.Servos.IContinuousRotationServo

Properties

CurrentDirection

Gets the current rotation direction

Declaration
public RotationDirection CurrentDirection { get; protected set; }

CurrentSpeed

Gets the current rotation speed

View Source
Declaration
public float CurrentSpeed { get; protected set; }

Methods

Rotate(RotationDirection, float)

Starts rotating the servo in the specified direction, at the specified speed.

Declaration
public void Rotate(RotationDirection direction, float speed)
Parameters
TypeNameDescription
Meadow.Foundation.Servos.RotationDirectiondirectionClockwise/counterclockwise.
System.Singlespeed0.0 to 1.0 (0% to 100%).

Stop()

Stops rotation of the servo.

Declaration
public override void Stop()

CalculatePulseDuration(RotationDirection, float)

Continuous rotation servos usually have a zero speed at their midpoint pulse duration (between min and max). As you lower the duration from midpoint, they rotate clockwise and rotate their fastest at the minimum pulse duration. As you increase the pulse duration, they rotate counter-clockwise.
