/// @file AC_Sprayer.h /// @brief Crop sprayer library /** The crop spraying functionality can be enabled in ArduCopter by doing the following: - set CH7_OPT or CH8_OPT parameter to 15 to allow turning the sprayer on/off from one of these channels - set RC10_FUNCTION to 22 to enable the servo output controlling the pump speed on servo-out 10 - set RC11_FUNCTION to 23 to enable the servo output controlling the spinner on servo-out 11 - ensure the RC10_MIN, RC10_MAX, RC11_MIN, RC11_MAX accurately hold the min and maximum servo values you could possibly output to the pump and spinner - set the SPRAY_SPINNER to the pwm value the spinner should spin at when on - set the SPRAY_PUMP_RATE to the value the pump servo should move to when the vehicle is travelling 1m/s expressed as a percentage (i.e. 0 ~ 100) of the full servo range. I.e. 0 = the pump will not operate, 100 = maximum speed at 1m/s. 50 = 1/2 speed at 1m/s, full speed at 2m/s - set the SPRAY_PUMP_MIN to the minimum value that the pump servo should move to while engaged expressed as a percentage (i.e. 0 ~ 100) of the full servo range - set the SPRAY_SPEED_MIN to the minimum speed (in cm/s) the vehicle should be moving at before the pump and sprayer are turned on. 0 will mean the pump and spinner will always be on when the system is enabled with ch7/ch8 switch **/ #pragma once #include #include #include #include #include #include #define AC_SPRAYER_DEFAULT_PUMP_RATE 10.0f ///< default quantity of spray per meter travelled #define AC_SPRAYER_DEFAULT_PUMP_MIN 0 ///< default minimum pump speed expressed as a percentage from 0 to 100 #define AC_SPRAYER_DEFAULT_SPINNER_PWM 1300 ///< default speed of spinner (higher means spray is throw further horizontally #define AC_SPRAYER_DEFAULT_SPEED_MIN 100 ///< we must be travelling at least 1m/s to begin spraying #define AC_SPRAYER_DEFAULT_TURN_ON_DELAY 100 ///< delay between when we reach the minimum speed and we begin spraying.
