Analog Inputs

NextAnalogInput is a wrapper around an analog input that gives you convenient access to different readings.

It inherits from AnalogFeedback, so any NextAnalogInput can also be passed directly as the feedback source for a feedback servo.

Creating a NextAnalogInput

Kotlin

// By Lynx Module and channel, recommended
val input = NextAnalogInput(RobotController.controlHub, 0)

// Using your configuration name
val input = NextAnalogInput("armEncoder")

Java

// By Lynx Module and channel, recommended
NextAnalogInput input = new NextAnalogInput(RobotController.controlHub(), 0);

// Using your configuration name
NextAnalogInput input = new NextAnalogInput("armEncoder");

Both constructors accept two optional parameters:

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
customTransformation	(Double) -> Double	Value Unchanged	An optional transformation applied to the normalized voltage ratio.
maxVoltage	Voltage	3.3.volts	The voltage that corresponds to a normalized value of 1.0.

Usage

rawVoltage

Voltage this is the raw, untransformed voltage currently read from the analog input.

Kotlin

val voltage = input.rawVoltage

Java

Voltage voltage = input.getRawVoltage();

value

Double the normalized reading, starting as rawVoltage then divided by your maxVoltage and passed through your customTransformation.

Kotlin

val normalized = input.value

Java

double normalized = input.getValue();
