NAME

Device::Solenodrive - Interface to the solenodrive hardware

VERSION

version 0.1

SYNOPSIS

my $solenodrive = Device::Solenodrive->new(device => '/dev/ttyUSB0');

DESCRIPTION

Host software to interface to solenodrive hardware.

METHODS

new(%parameters)

This constructor returns a new Device::Solenodrive object. Supported parameters are listed below

device

The target device to connect to. This can be either a serial port object (e.g. /dev/ttyUSB0) or a TCP socket (e.g. 192.168.1.52:10001).

baudrate

Optional parameter when using a serial port for connecting to the bootloader. Default value is 57600 bps.

verbose

Controls the verbosity of the module. Defaults to 0. Increasing numbers make the module more chatty. 5 is the highest level and probably provides too much information. 3 is a good level to get started.

connect_target()

Opens the connection to the device that provides the RS485 interface, should be called before trying to send commands

set(ID, channel)

Sets the channel channel of the Solenodrive with ID ID active.

enumerate()

Enumerate the devices on the bus, reports the addresses of the devices together with their firmware version. The returned object is a hash containing the address/firmware version pairs. Only supported from Solenodrive firmware v1.1 and upwards.

disconnect_target()

Closes the connection to the RS485 bus.

list_devices()

List the devices that were discovered after enumeration.

BUILD

An internal function used by Moose to run code after the constructor. Need to document because otherwise Test::Pod::Coverage test fails

O_NDELAY

Detected by Pod::Coverage from the sysopen function. Stub documenation to ensure the test does not fail when the module is deployed.

O_NOCTTY

Detected by Pod::Coverage from the sysopen function. Stub documenation to ensure the test does not fail when the module is deployed.

O_RDWR

Detected by Pod::Coverage from the sysopen function. Stub documenation to ensure the test does not fail when the module is deployed.
