18649 - Elevator Control Package

18649 Spring 2010
Group 7 - Justin Ray/justinr2

This page lists and describes the java files in your elevatorcontrol package. Update this document to reflect your implementation and add your java files to the elevatorcontrol folder.

Note: In order for your portfolio to be complete, the code files in the elevatorcontrol folder must compiled and run if copied into the elevatorcontrol package (overwriting any duplicates) of a clean version of the latest required simulator release.

Controller files

ButtonControl.java - Controller that implements the behavior for the soda selection buttons on the soda machine.
CoinControl.java - Controller that handles inserting and returning coins from the system.
VendControl.java - Controller that controls the vend actuator to dispense sodas from chutes
VendPositionControl.java - Controller that implements the behavior to move the vend carriage and align the vend actuator with the soda chutes.

Translator files

Links and descriptions to all message translators used by the controllers.

ButtonCanPayloadTranslator.java - Translator for the mButton[s] message - stores the boolean message value in one bit of an eight bit message.
CoinCountCanPayloadTranslator.java - Translator for the mCoinCount message send by the CoinControl - stores the coin count as an eight bit unsigned integer.
VendCanPayloadTranslator.java - Translator for the mVend message - stores the boolean message value in one bit of an eight bit message.
VendMotorCanPayloadTranslator.java - Translator for the mVendMotor message - stores the enumerate message value (LEFT, RIGHT, STOP) in two bits of an eight bit message.

Utility files

Control.java - Sets the controller periods and instantiates controller objects.
