Crate pololu_smc

This crate provides a user-friendly driver for the Pololu Simple Motor Controller G2, for use on embedded hardware.

It uses traits from the embedded_hal crate in order to be independent from end user hardware. Currently only the I²C protocol is implemented.

This documentation is heavily based on the official user's guide for the controller, published by Pololu. The aim is for this documentation to contain the basic information required to use the controller, but please consult the user's guide in order to fully understand the capabilities and limitations of the hardware and the various protocols.

Example

 use pololu_smc::{SimpleMotorController, Command};

 // ...

 let mut controller = SimpleMotorController::new(interface, 0x12);

 let errors = controller.get_error_status()?;

 controller.send_command(Command::ExitSafeStart)?;
 controller.send_command(Command::MotorFwd{speed: 500})?;
