PWMSparkMax

class wpilib.PWMSparkMax(channel: int)

Bases: PWMMotorController

REV Robotics SPARK MAX Motor %Controller.

Note that the SPARK MAX 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 SPARK MAX User Manual available from REV Robotics.

  • 2.003ms = full “forward”

  • 1.550ms = the “high end” of the deadband range

  • 1.500ms = center of the deadband range (off)

  • 1.460ms = the “low end” of the deadband range

  • 0.999ms = full “reverse”

Constructor for a SPARK MAX.

Parameters:

channel – The PWM channel that the SPARK MAX is attached to. 0-9 are on-board, 10-19 are on the MXP port
