Go to: Overview |
This is a generic output controller class which are based on the FT245R chip (http://www.ftdichip.com/Products/ICs/FT245R.htm). Only units using the chip in bitbang mode are supported by this output controller class. The SainSmart USB relay boards (http://www.sainsmart.com/arduino-compatibles-1/relay/usb-relay.html) are compatible with this output controller, but other hardware which is based on the same controller chip might be compatible as well. Generally controller units which is exclusively using the FT245R (no extra cpu on board) and having max. 8 output ports are likely to be compatible. Please let me know, if you have tested other hardware successfully, so I can ammend the docu. More...

| override void | Init (Cabinet Cabinet) |
| Initializes the FT245RBitbangController and starts the updater thread. More... | |
| override void | Finish () |
| Finishes the FT245RBitbangController object. Finish does also terminate the workerthread. More... | |
| override void | Update () |
| Signals the workerthread that all pending updates for the FT245RBitbangController should be sent to the hardware. More... | |
| FT245RBitbangController () | |
| Initializes a new instance of the FT245RBitbangController class. More... | |
Protected Member Functions | |
| override void | OnOutputValueChanged (IOutput Output) |
| This method is called whenever the value of a output in the Outputs property changes its value. It updates the internal array holding the states of the outputs. More... | |

Thanks go to DJRobX for his early implementation of a SainSmart output controller which was the starting point for the implementation of this class.
