speedlib 2.3.3

A python library to operate 'Speed' devices

SpeedLib

A python library to operate Speed devices.

Currently the API has an unique backend allowing to control miniature devices like the Faller (c) Crane or DCC trains.

Examples

Controlling a Faller (c) crane model

from speedlib.cranes import faller
from speedlib.cranes.faller import Crane
ip_1 = "172.17.217.217"
ip_2 = "172.17.217.217"
crane_1 = Crane()
crane_2 = Crane()
crane_1.init(ip_1)
crane_2.init(ip_2)
crane_2.start_for(20*faller.ureg.millisecond,faller.MotorChassis,faller.MotorDirectionForward)
crane_1.change_speed(faller.MotorCrab, -40)

Controlling a DCC train model

from speedlib.trains import dcc
from speedlib.trains.dcc import Train
train1 = Train("DCC3",3) # Create the DCC controller with the RPi encoder, Create locos (args: Name, DCC Address) and Register locos on the controller
train2 = Train("DCC1",1)
dcc.start()
train1.speed = 14
train1.faster()
train1.slower()
train1.fl = True 
print(train1)
dcc.stop()

You can find more examples in the examples directory.

Install

git clone https://github.com/CRIStAL-PADR/Speed.git

The library is in speedlib/init.py
