Python interface to Carrera(R) DIGITAL 124/132 slotcar systems
Project description
This module provides a Python interface to Carrera(R) DIGITAL 124/132 slotcar systems connected via serial port or Bluetooth.
>>> from carreralib import ControlUnit
>>> cu = ControlUnit('D4:8B:C6:FC:D8:07')
>>> cu.version()
b'5331'
>>> cu.request()
Status(fuel=(15, 15, 15, 15, 15, 15, 0, 0), start=0, mode=6,
pit=(False, False, False, False, False, False, False, False),
display=8)
>>> cu.start()
>>> cu.request()
Status(fuel=(15, 15, 15, 15, 15, 15, 0, 0), start=1, mode=6,
pit=(False, False, False, False, False, False, False, False),
display=8)
>>> cu.start()
>>> cu.request()
Timer(address=1, timestamp=243019, sector=1)
>>> cu.request()
Timer(address=0, timestamp=245704, sector=1)
For Bluetooth access you will need the Carrera AppConnect(R) adapter, a Bluetooth Low Energy compatible device, and bluepy installed, which is only available for Linux. A serial connection should work on all platforms supported by pySerial.
Installation
Install carreralib using pip:
pip install carreralib
Demo RMS
For demonstration purposes, the carreralib module can also be used from the command line as a simple race management system (RMS).
