Devices

Typed wrappers returned by lpf2.port.device().

Class	Wraps
basic_motor	Simple DC motor (train, PF-M) — power only, no encoder.
encoder_motor	Motor with rotary encoder + position/speed loops.
color_sensor	Technic Color Sensor — colour, reflectivity, RGB, HSV.
distance_sensor	Technic Distance Sensor (time-of-flight).
color_distance_sensor	Boost Color & Distance Sensor (legacy WeDo/Boost).
hub_led	RGB LED on a hub’s built-in LED port.
accelerometer	Built-in hub accelerometer (mG).
gyroscope	Built-in hub gyroscope (dps).
port_expander	LPF2 Port Expander accessory. Use getPort() for the sub-ports.

Common methods

Every device wrapper has:

• getDeviceType() — numeric device type (see lpf2.device_type).

• name() — human-readable string.

Device-specific methods are covered in Motors and Sensors.

Registering factories

The C++ device factory is auto-registered at module import. registerDefault() re-registers it — useful after a soft reset in a custom build.

from lpf2 import devices
