Device fields
| YOLOL field | Description | Range |
|---|---|---|
| tractorBeamOnState | Beam on/off | 1 or 0 |
| tractorBeamSoftRelease | When set to 1, brings the object grabbed by the beam to a stop, then turns off the beam | 1 or 0 |
| tractorBeamSnapToObjects | When set to 1, tractor beam tries to snap held object to nearby objects | 1 or 0 |
| tractorBeamSearchLength | Length (meters) of the beam when the beam is not attached to anything. Max range of the beam. | - |
| tractorBeamForce | Maximum amount of force (Newtons) the beam will try to apply to grabbed object. | - |
| tractorBeamTorque | Maximum amount of torque (Newtons) the beam will try to apply to grabbed object. | - |
| tractorBeamPosition | The distance (meters) the beam tries to move a held object to. Resets on grab, but does not message network / other devices. | - |
| tractorBeamYaw | The yaw (degrees) the beam tries to move a held object to, relative to the base. Resets on grab, but does not message network / other devices. | - |
| tractorBeamPitch | The pitch (degrees) the beam tries to move a held object to, relative to the base. Resets on grab, but does not message network / other devices. | - |
| tractorBeamRoll | The roll (degrees) the beam tries to move a held object to, relative to the base. Resets on grab, but does not message network / other devices. | - |
| tractorBeamObjectInBeam | Indicates whether an object is grabbed by the beam. | 1 or 0 |
| tractorBeamForceApplied | Indicates the force (Newtons) currently being applied to the grabbed object. Can be used to detect when the grabbed object has been set to the target position. | - |
| tractorBeamTorqueApplied | Indicates the torque (Newtons) currently being applied to the grabbed object. Can be used to detect when the grabbed object has been set to the target rotation. | - |
