ODrive Case

thingiverse

Basic example code for ODrive controller software. The controller is a highly capable motor controller that can be used to control DC motors, stepper motors, and other types of electric motors. Firstly, ensure you have the necessary components installed on your computer. These include the ODrive Python library and a suitable IDE. For this example, we will use Visual Studio Code. Next, connect your ODrive board to your computer using a USB cable. The board should now be recognized by your computer. Now, let's create a basic script that will allow us to control the motor. We'll begin by importing the necessary libraries and initializing the ODrive object. ```python import time from odrive.enums import * from odrive.models import Axes # Initialize the ODrive object odrive = Axes() # Set up the motor settings motor_settings = { 'controller': 'MotorController', 'axis': 0, 'velocity_ramp_rate': 10000.0, 'max_velocity': 5000000.0, } # Configure the motor settings odrive.configure(motor_settings) # Start the motor at a moderate speed odrive.start_motor() time.sleep(1) odrive.set_speed(2000.0) ``` This script initializes the ODrive object, sets up the motor settings, and starts the motor at a moderate speed. Note: This is just an example code snippet and should be modified to suit your specific needs.
