Documentation#

Everything needed to drive the DFRobot M0601 hub motor with this repo, whether you’re calling the library from Rust or running the CLI against a motor on the bench.

If you’ve landed here from a search engine, the front page is the orientation — it has the three facts that explain almost everything about this motor, and it points at the right track for what you’re doing.

The sections#

• Getting started — build, install, wire, and get serial-port permissions right.
• First-spin tutorial — bare wires to a spinning wheel, narrated step by step.
• Safety — what brakes, what coasts, and what will hurt you. Short; read it before the wheel is on the ground.
• CLI guide — a detailed page per subcommand.
• Library guide — calling m0601 from Rust.
• Sample code — the runnable code in this repo: four_wheel_minimal.rs and the m0601-quad rover app.
• Concepts — the design notes: why the driver behaves the way it does.
• Protocol reference — the wire format, byte by byte, with sourcing.
• FAQ and Troubleshooting — when something’s off.
• Internals — how the crate is built, for contributors.
