Crate rcx

rcx

Interface library for communicating with the LEGO Mindstorms RCX brick

Example

use rcx::{tower::usb::UsbTower, MotorSelection, Rcx};

const DEVICE: &str = "/dev/usb/legousbtower0";

fn main() -> color_eyre::Result<()> {
    color_eyre::install()?;
    let rcx = UsbTower::open(DEVICE)?;

    let mut rcx = Rcx::new(rcx);

    rcx.set_motor_direction(MotorSelection::A, rcx::MotorDirection::Forward)?;
    rcx.set_motor_power(MotorSelection::A, 5)?;
    rcx.set_motor_on_off(MotorSelection::A, rcx::MotorPowerState::On)?;
    std::thread::sleep(std::time::Duration::from_secs(2));
    rcx.set_motor_on_off(MotorSelection::A, rcx::MotorPowerState::Float)?;

    Ok(())
}

MotorSelection

MotorState

Motor state is encoded as a single byte. Bits 0-2 contain the motor power, 0..7. The remaining bits are used as follows:

Rcx

Enums

MotorDirection

MotorPowerState

SensorMode

Set the slope and mode of sensor number sensor to the value specified by mode, and clear that sensor’s value. The bits of mode are split into two portions. Bits 0-4 contain a slope value in 0..31, while bits 5-7 contain the mode, 0..7. The eight modes, which control the value returned by the sensor, are:

SensorType

Sound

There are six avaiable sound types:

SourceType

This section describes the available sources and arguments.

TransmitterRange

Set the transmitter range. 0 indicates short range, 1 indicates long range. Other values are ignored.
