Method Detail

getManufacturer

HardwareDevice.Manufacturer getManufacturer()

Returns an indication of the manufacturer of this device.

Returns:

the device's manufacturer

getDeviceName

java.lang.String getDeviceName()

Returns a string suitable for display to the user as to the type of device. Note that this is a device-type-specific name; it has nothing to do with the name by which a user might have configured the device in a robot configuration.

Returns:

device manufacturer and name

getConnectionInfo

java.lang.String getConnectionInfo()

Get connection information about this device in a human readable format

Returns:

connection info

getVersion

int getVersion()

Version

Returns:

get the version of this device

resetDeviceConfigurationForOpMode

void resetDeviceConfigurationForOpMode()

Resets the device's configuration to that which is expected at the beginning of an OpMode. For example, motors will reset the their direction to 'forward'.

close

void close()

Closes this device
