[−][src]Struct rust_gpiozero::output_devices::Motor

pub struct Motor { /* fields omitted */ }

Represents a generic motor connected to a bi-directional motor driver circuit (i.e. an H-bridge). Attach an H-bridge motor controller to your Pi; connect a power source (e.g. a battery pack or the 5V pin) to the controller; connect the outputs of the controller board to the two terminals of the motor; connect the inputs of the controller board to two GPIO pins.

Methods

impl Motor[src]

pub fn new(forward_pin: u8, backward_pin: u8) -> Motor[src]

creates a new Motor instance

  • forward_pin - The GPIO pin that the forward input of the motor driver chip is connected to
  • backward - The GPIO pin that the backward input of the motor driver chip is connected to

pub fn forward(&mut self)[src]

Drive the motor forwards at the current speed. You can change the speed using set_speed before calling forward

pub fn backward(&mut self)[src]

Drive the motor backwards. You can change the speed using set_speed before calling backward

pub fn stop(&mut self)[src]

Stop the motor.

pub fn set_speed(&mut self, speed: f64)[src]

The speed at which the motor should turn. Can be any value between 0.0 (stopped) and the default 1.0 (maximum speed)
