Python-native implementation of LdcnLib

Python-native implementation of LdcnLib

This is a basic python-native implementation of LdcnLib. It implements some Ldcn and stepper methods. It solely relies on the package pyserial.

Ldcn methods

The following Ldcn methods were implemented.

Method	Description
LdcnHardReset	Resets all devices (broadcast)
LdcnSendCmd	Send command to device
LdcnInit	Initialize network using default group 0xFF
LdcnShutdown	Stop motor, delete devices (reinit necessary)
LdcnGetDeviceId	Returns device, devid for addr
LdcnGetDevice	Returns device for addr
LdcnGetStat	Returns device status
LdcnGetStatItems	Returns configured statusitems
LdcnReadStatus	Reads local device status

Stepper methods

The following Stepper methods were implemented.

Method	Description
GetSteppers	Returns addresses of discovered stepper devices
StepStopMotor	Setup stop behaviour
StepSetParam	Sets motor operation parameters
StepLoadTraj	Set-up and start movement
StepResetPos	Reset motor position to 0

Usage

To find out how the methods are used, either check LdcnLib documentation or example given in demo.py.

Disclaimer

Usage at your own risk, the implementation is neither complete nor well tested.
