[EthercatDevice_DmpHID_Generic]

Description

Read the logical counter from the Encoder of the MPG on the EtherCAT slave device.

Derived Class:

Class NameVendor IDProduct CodeUARTKeypadLCMMPG
EthercatDevice_QECR11HU1S0x00000bc30x0086d404OO
EthercatDevice_QECR11HU9S0x00000bc30x0086d402OOOO
EthercatDevice_QECR00HU9S0x00000bc30x0086d401OOOO

Syntax

int32_t mpgReadEncoder();

Parameters

None.

Return Value

Return the logical counter with 32-bit signed integer.

Comment

This function must be called after a successful execution of EthercatMaster::start() and before EthercatMaster::stop(). This function is non-blocking and can be called within the callback functions.

Example

#include "Ethercat.h"

EthercatMaster master;
EthercatDevice_QECR11HU9S slave;

int32_t encoder = 0;

void CyclicCallback() {
  slave.update();
}

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(115200);

  master.begin();
  slave.attach(0, master);
  master.attachCyclicCallback(CyclicCallback);
  master.start();
}

void loop() {
  int32_t newEncoder = slave.mpgReadEncoder();
  if (encoder != newEncoder) {
    encoder = newEncoder;
    Serial.print("Encoder: ");
    Serial.println(encoder);
  }

  // ...
}
