Detailed Description

The most generic interface to a position/turn counter, for encoding positions.

Within one turn, there are resolution() position increments. After a turn-increment, the position will be exactly zero or resolution(). An upcounting() == true encoder will count from zero to resolution() between two turn increments. An upcounting() == false encoder will count from resolution() to zero between two turn increments.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

RTT::dev::EncoderInterface::EncoderInterface ( const std::string &  name) [inline]

Create a EncoderInterface with a name.

When name is not "", and unique, it can be retrieved through EncoderInterface::nameserver .

Definition at line 75 of file EncoderInterface.hpp.

Create a not nameserverd EncoderInterface instance.

Definition at line 82 of file EncoderInterface.hpp.

Member Function Documentation

virtual int RTT::dev::EncoderInterface::positionGet ( ) const [pure virtual]

Get the position within the current turn.

virtual void RTT::dev::EncoderInterface::positionSet ( int  p) [pure virtual]

Set the position within the current turn.

virtual int RTT::dev::EncoderInterface::resolution ( ) const [pure virtual]

Return the position resolution. This number can be negative or positive and denotes the the maximal or minimal value positionGet().

virtual int RTT::dev::EncoderInterface::turnGet ( ) const [pure virtual]

Get the current turn.

virtual void RTT::dev::EncoderInterface::turnSet ( int  t) [pure virtual]

Set the current turn.

virtual bool RTT::dev::EncoderInterface::upcounting ( ) const [pure virtual]

Returns true if after a positive turn increment, position increments positively.

Meaning from 0 to |resolution()| or from resolution() to zero if resolution() < 0
