FUNCTIONS

new()

Creates an object with the unique device ID *uid* and adds it to the IP Connection *ipcon*.

get_value()

Returns the input value as bools, *true* refers to high and *false* refers to low.

set_value_callback_configuration()

This callback can be configured per channel.

The period is the period with which the :cb:`Value` callback is triggered periodically. A value of 0 turns the callback off.

If the `value has to change`-parameter is set to true, the callback is only triggered after the value has changed. If the value didn't change within the period, the callback is triggered immediately on change.

If it is set to false, the callback is continuously triggered with the period, independent of the value.

get_value_callback_configuration()

Returns the callback configuration for the given channel as set by :func:`Set Value Callback Configuration`.

set_all_value_callback_configuration()

The period is the period with which the :cb:`All Value` callback is triggered periodically. A value of 0 turns the callback off.

If the `value has to change`-parameter is set to true, the callback is only triggered after the value has changed. If the value didn't change within the period, the callback is triggered immediately on change.

If it is set to false, the callback is continuously triggered with the period, independent of the value.

get_all_value_callback_configuration()

Returns the callback configuration as set by :func:`Set All Value Callback Configuration`.

get_edge_count()

Returns the current value of the edge counter for the selected channel. You can configure the edges that are counted with :func:`Set Edge Count Configuration`.

If you set the reset counter to *true*, the count is set back to 0 directly after it is read.

set_edge_count_configuration()

Configures the edge counter for a specific channel.

The edge type parameter configures if rising edges, falling edges or both are counted. Possible edge types are:

* 0 = rising * 1 = falling * 2 = both

Configuring an edge counter resets its value to 0.

If you don't know what any of this means, just leave it at default. The default configuration is very likely OK for you.

get_edge_count_configuration()

Returns the edge type and debounce time for the selected channel as set by :func:`Set Edge Count Configuration`.

set_channel_led_config()

Each channel has a corresponding LED. You can turn the LED off, on or show a heartbeat. You can also set the LED to "Channel Status". In this mode the LED is on if the channel is high and off otherwise.

By default all channel LEDs are configured as "Channel Status".

get_channel_led_config()

Returns the channel LED configuration as set by :func:`Set Channel LED Config`

get_spitfp_error_count()

Returns the error count for the communication between Brick and Bricklet.

The errors are divided into

* ACK checksum errors, * message checksum errors, * framing errors and * overflow errors.

The errors counts are for errors that occur on the Bricklet side. All Bricks have a similar function that returns the errors on the Brick side.

set_bootloader_mode()

Sets the bootloader mode and returns the status after the requested mode change was instigated.

You can change from bootloader mode to firmware mode and vice versa. A change from bootloader mode to firmware mode will only take place if the entry function, device identifier and CRC are present and correct.

This function is used by Brick Viewer during flashing. It should not be necessary to call it in a normal user program.

get_bootloader_mode()

Returns the current bootloader mode, see :func:`Set Bootloader Mode`.

set_write_firmware_pointer()

Sets the firmware pointer for :func:`Write Firmware`. The pointer has to be increased by chunks of size 64. The data is written to flash every 4 chunks (which equals to one page of size 256).

This function is used by Brick Viewer during flashing. It should not be necessary to call it in a normal user program.

write_firmware()

Writes 64 Bytes of firmware at the position as written by :func:`Set Write Firmware Pointer` before. The firmware is written to flash every 4 chunks.

You can only write firmware in bootloader mode.

This function is used by Brick Viewer during flashing. It should not be necessary to call it in a normal user program.

set_status_led_config()

Sets the status LED configuration. By default the LED shows communication traffic between Brick and Bricklet, it flickers once for every 10 received data packets.

You can also turn the LED permanently on/off or show a heartbeat.

If the Bricklet is in bootloader mode, the LED is will show heartbeat by default.

get_status_led_config()

Returns the configuration as set by :func:`Set Status LED Config`

get_chip_temperature()

Returns the temperature in °C as measured inside the microcontroller. The value returned is not the ambient temperature!

The temperature is only proportional to the real temperature and it has bad accuracy. Practically it is only useful as an indicator for temperature changes.

reset()

Calling this function will reset the Bricklet. All configurations will be lost.

After a reset you have to create new device objects, calling functions on the existing ones will result in undefined behavior!

write_uid()

Writes a new UID into flash. If you want to set a new UID you have to decode the Base58 encoded UID string into an integer first.

We recommend that you use Brick Viewer to change the UID.

read_uid()

Returns the current UID as an integer. Encode as Base58 to get the usual string version.

get_identity()

Returns the UID, the UID where the Bricklet is connected to, the position, the hardware and firmware version as well as the device identifier.

The position can be 'a', 'b', 'c' or 'd'.

The device identifier numbers can be found :ref:`here <device_identifier>`. |device_identifier_constant|
