usbBrickIO
(varargin)¶USB interface between MATLAB and the brick
Notes
debug
¶bool – If true, each open/close/read/write-call will be noted in the console. Defaults to false.
vendorID
¶numeric – Vendor-ID of the USB device. Defaults to 0x694 (EV3 vendor ID).
productID
¶numeric – Product-ID of the USB device. Defaults to 0x0005 (EV3 product ID).
nReadBuffer
¶numeric – Read-buffer size in bytes. Defaults to 1024.
nWriteBuffer
¶numeric – Write-buffer size in bytes. Needs to be 1 Byte bigger than actual packet. Defaults to 1025 (EV3 USB maximum packet size = 1024).
timeOut
¶numeric >= 0 – Milliseconds after which a timeout-error occurs if no packet could be read. Defaults to 10000.
Examples
% Connecting via USB
commHandle = usbBrickIO(); %
% Connecting via USB with enabled debug output
commHandle = usbBrickIO('debug', true); %
close
(brickIO)¶Closes the usb connection the brick through the hidapi interface.
open
(brickIO)¶Opens the usb connection to the brick through the hidapi interface.
read
(brickIO)¶Reads data from the brick through usb using the hidapi interface and returns the data in uint8 format.
setProperties
(brickIO, varargin)¶Sets multiple usbBrickIO properties at once using MATLAB's inputParser.
The syntax is as follows: commHandle.setProperties('propertyName1', propertyValue1, 'propertyName2', propertyValue2, ...). Valid, optional properties are: debug, vendorID, productID, nReadBuffer, nWriteBuffer, timeOut.

write
(brickIO, wmsg)¶Writes data to the brick through usb using the hidapi interface.
Parameters: | wmsg (uint8 array) – Data to be written to the brick via usb |
