Expand description

Implemented by drivers that have motion control capabilities

A software-based fallback implementation exists in the motion_control module, for drivers that implement SetDirection and Step.

Required Associated Types

The type used by the driver to represent velocity

The type error that can happen when using this trait

Required Methods

Move to the given position

This method must arrange for the motion to start, but must not block until it is completed. If more attention is required during the motion, this should be handled in MotionControl::update.

Reset internal position to the given value

This method must not start a motion. Its only purpose is to change the driver’s internal position value, for example for homing.

Update an ongoing motion

This method may contain any code required to maintain an ongoing motion, if required, or it might just check whether a motion is still ongoing.

Return true, if motion is ongoing, false otherwise. If false is returned, the caller may assume that this method doesn’t need to be called again, until starting another motion.
