APM

The code generated for this library can be found at APM readthedocs

Overview

This project holds the code for the RIT Electric Vehicles Team's (EVT) Auxiliary Power Module (APM). To see our main code repository please see EVT-core.

The APM is designed to control the power distribution for the DEV1 electric dirtbike designed by the EVT team. It will control the bike start up sequence, provide 12V and 5V power to the bike electronic systems (excluding main motor), and detect faults in the power system.

Build

The compilation process is handled via CMake and in general follows standard practices. The noticable addition is the need to setup an environment variable which stores the location to the gcc arm toolchain. Below is an example of how to set the environment variable on Linux/Unix.

export GCC_ARM_TOOLS_PATH=/path/to/gcc_arm_tools_path/bin/

The compilation logic will make use of that enivronment variable to locate the needed tools to generate the code.

After that, the compilation process follows standard practice. Below is an example compilation process.

mkdir build/
cd build/
cmake ../
make -j

After that, in the build folder will be the compiled library code as well as generated samples.

For building with linting enabled (recommended). First install cpplint, then run the installation with the modification below.

mkdir build/
cd build/
cmake -DEVT_LINT=ON ../
make -j
