DMC60

class wpilib.DMC60(channel: int)[source]

Bases: wpilib.PWMSpeedController

Digilent DMC 60 Speed Controller.

Constructor.

Parameters:channel (int) – The PWM channel that the DMC60 is attached to. 0-9 are on-board, 10-19 are on the MXP port.

Note

The DMC60 uses the following bounds for PWM values. These values should work reasonably well for most controllers, but if users experience issues such as asymmetric behavior around the deadband or inability to saturate the controller in either direction, calibration is recommended. The calibration procedure can be found in the DMC 60 User Manual available from Digilent.

  • 2.004ms = full “forward”
  • 1.520ms = the “high end” of the deadband range
  • 1.500ms = center of the deadband range (off)
  • 1.480ms = the “low end” of the deadband range
  • 0.997ms = full “reverse”
