Zequent Client SDK (Go) — Remote Control API Reference

Exhaustive method reference for remotecontrol.New(conn). For a narrative introduction, see the Quickstart. For Java, see client-sdk-remote-control.md.

Every method takes a context.Context first and returns (*devicecontrol.CommandResponse, error) unless noted otherwise — there's no separate HasErrors flag to check; a non-nil error already carries the platform-side message. Request/response types live in the devicecontrol package (device-control-contracts.proto) — the same shapes EdgeAdapterService uses, so they flow unchanged from this client through to the edge adapter that actually talks to the hardware.

Capability / runtime discovery

Method	Returns	Notes
`ReportAssetRuntime(ctx, req)`	`*devicecontrol.ReportAssetRuntimeResponse`	Normally called by an edge adapter, not a customer app — exposed for completeness/testing
`GetAssetRuntime(ctx, assetSn, assetID)`	`*devicecontrol.AssetRuntimeSnapshot`	Latest payload/capability snapshot Remote Control has cached for an asset; `assetID` optional, pass `""` to omit
`GetCapabilities(ctx, sn)`	`*devicecontrol.AssetCapabilities`	Current capability snapshot for `sn`

Flight control

Method	Notes
`TakeOff(ctx, sn, coordinate *devicecontrol.GeoCoordinate)`
`GoTo(ctx, sn, coordinate *devicecontrol.GeoCoordinate)`
`ReturnToHome(ctx, sn, altitude float32)`	`altitude` optional — pass `0` to omit and use the device's default RTH altitude

Manual control

Method	Notes
`EnterManualControl(ctx, sn, clientID, userID, sessionID string)`	`clientID`/`userID` identify who is taking control; `sessionID` scopes the session
`ExitManualControl(ctx, sn, clientID, userID, sessionID string)`	Same parameters as `EnterManualControl`
`OpenManualControlInputStream(ctx) (grpc.ClientStreamingClient[devicecontrol.ManualControlInputCommandRequest, devicecontrol.CommandResponse], error)`	Client-streaming — send one `ManualControlInputCommandRequest` per tick, then `CloseAndRecv()` when done
`LookAt(ctx, sn, coordinate *devicecontrol.GeoCoordinate, locked bool)`
`CapturePhoto(ctx, sn)`
`PlayTTSAudio(ctx, req *devicecontrol.TextToSpeechCommandRequest)`
`LiveStreamSplitScreen(ctx, sn, enabled bool)`

Detection

Method	Notes
`ControlDetection(ctx, req *devicecontrol.DetectionControlCommandRequest)`

Dock commands

Method	Notes
`OpenCover(ctx, sn)`
`CloseCover(ctx, sn, force bool)`	`force` is a required parameter, not optional
`StartCharging(ctx, sn)`
`StopCharging(ctx, sn)`

Asset management

Method	Notes
`RebootAsset(ctx, sn)`
`BootSubAsset(ctx, sn, enabled bool)`	Power the sub-asset on/off

Debug and maintenance

Method	Notes
`SetRemoteDebugMode(ctx, sn, enabled bool)`	One toggle method, unlike Java's two separate `enterRemoteDebugMode`/`closeRemoteDebugMode`
`ChangeAcMode(ctx, req *devicecontrol.ChangeAcModeCommandRequest)`

Camera

Method	Notes
`ChangeLens(ctx, req *devicecontrol.ChangeCameraLensCommandRequest)`
`ChangeZoom(ctx, req *devicecontrol.ChangeCameraZoomCommandRequest)`

Custom commands

Method	Returns	Notes
`SendCustomCommand(ctx, sn, commandID string, params structpb.Struct, target devicecontrol.CapabilityTarget)`	`*devicecontrol.CustomCommandResponse`	Handles a command that doesn't map to a standard method above — see Waypoint Missions for the `mission.waypoint.execute` use case
