func (*LineBricklet) DeregisterReflectivityCallback ¶

func (device *LineBricklet) DeregisterReflectivityCallback(registrationId uint64)

Remove a registered Reflectivity callback.

func (*LineBricklet) DeregisterReflectivityReachedCallback ¶

func (device *LineBricklet) DeregisterReflectivityReachedCallback(registrationId uint64)

Remove a registered Reflectivity Reached callback.

func (*LineBricklet) GetAPIVersion ¶

func (device *LineBricklet) GetAPIVersion() [3]uint8

Returns the version of the API definition (major, minor, revision) implemented by this API bindings. This is neither the release version of this API bindings nor does it tell you anything about the represented Brick or Bricklet.

func (*LineBricklet) GetDebouncePeriod ¶

func (device *LineBricklet) GetDebouncePeriod() (debounce uint32, err error)

Returns the debounce period as set by SetDebouncePeriod.

func (*LineBricklet) GetIdentity ¶

func (device *LineBricklet) GetIdentity() (uid string, connectedUid string, position rune, hardwareVersion [3]uint8, firmwareVersion [3]uint8, deviceIdentifier uint16, err error)

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', 'd', 'e', 'f', 'g' or 'h' (Bricklet Port). A Bricklet connected to an `Isolator Bricklet <isolator_bricklet>` is always at position 'z'.

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

func (*LineBricklet) GetReflectivity ¶

func (device *LineBricklet) GetReflectivity() (reflectivity uint16, err error)

Returns the currently measured reflectivity. The reflectivity is a value between 0 (not reflective) and 4095 (very reflective).

Usually black has a low reflectivity while white has a high reflectivity.

If you want to get the reflectivity periodically, it is recommended to use the RegisterReflectivityCallback callback and set the period with SetReflectivityCallbackPeriod.

func (*LineBricklet) GetReflectivityCallbackPeriod ¶

func (device *LineBricklet) GetReflectivityCallbackPeriod() (period uint32, err error)

Returns the period as set by SetReflectivityCallbackPeriod.

func (*LineBricklet) GetReflectivityCallbackThreshold ¶

func (device *LineBricklet) GetReflectivityCallbackThreshold() (option ThresholdOption, min uint16, max uint16, err error)

Returns the threshold as set by SetReflectivityCallbackThreshold.

Associated constants:

• ThresholdOptionOff
• ThresholdOptionOutside
• ThresholdOptionInside
• ThresholdOptionSmaller
• ThresholdOptionGreater

func (*LineBricklet) GetResponseExpected ¶

func (device *LineBricklet) GetResponseExpected(functionID Function) (bool, error)

Returns the response expected flag for the function specified by the function ID parameter. It is true if the function is expected to send a response, false otherwise.

For getter functions this is enabled by default and cannot be disabled, because those functions will always send a response. For callback configuration functions it is enabled by default too, but can be disabled by SetResponseExpected. For setter functions it is disabled by default and can be enabled.

Enabling the response expected flag for a setter function allows to detect timeouts and other error conditions calls of this setter as well. The device will then send a response for this purpose. If this flag is disabled for a setter function then no response is sent and errors are silently ignored, because they cannot be detected.

See SetResponseExpected for the list of function ID constants available for this function.

func (*LineBricklet) RegisterReflectivityCallback ¶

func (device *LineBricklet) RegisterReflectivityCallback(fn func(uint16)) uint64

This callback is triggered periodically with the period that is set by SetReflectivityCallbackPeriod. The parameter is the reflectivity of the sensor.

The RegisterReflectivityCallback callback is only triggered if the reflectivity has changed since the last triggering.

func (*LineBricklet) RegisterReflectivityReachedCallback ¶

func (device *LineBricklet) RegisterReflectivityReachedCallback(fn func(uint16)) uint64

This callback is triggered when the threshold as set by SetReflectivityCallbackThreshold is reached. The parameter is the reflectivity of the sensor.

If the threshold keeps being reached, the callback is triggered periodically with the period as set by SetDebouncePeriod.

func (*LineBricklet) SetDebouncePeriod ¶

func (device *LineBricklet) SetDebouncePeriod(debounce uint32) (err error)

Sets the period with which the threshold callback

* RegisterReflectivityReachedCallback

is triggered, if the threshold

* SetReflectivityCallbackThreshold

keeps being reached.

func (*LineBricklet) SetReflectivityCallbackPeriod ¶

func (device *LineBricklet) SetReflectivityCallbackPeriod(period uint32) (err error)

Sets the period with which the RegisterReflectivityCallback callback is triggered periodically. A value of 0 turns the callback off.

The RegisterReflectivityCallback callback is only triggered if the reflectivity has changed since the last triggering.

func (*LineBricklet) SetReflectivityCallbackThreshold ¶

func (device *LineBricklet) SetReflectivityCallbackThreshold(option ThresholdOption, min uint16, max uint16) (err error)

Sets the thresholds for the RegisterReflectivityReachedCallback callback.

The following options are possible:

Option| Description
--- | ---
'x'|    Callback is turned off
'o'|    Callback is triggered when the reflectivity is *outside* the min and max values
'i'|    Callback is triggered when the reflectivity is *inside* the min and max values
'<'|    Callback is triggered when the reflectivity is smaller than the min value (max is ignored)
'>'|    Callback is triggered when the reflectivity is greater than the min value (max is ignored)

Associated constants:

• ThresholdOptionOff
• ThresholdOptionOutside
• ThresholdOptionInside
• ThresholdOptionSmaller
• ThresholdOptionGreater

func (*LineBricklet) SetResponseExpected ¶

func (device *LineBricklet) SetResponseExpected(functionID Function, responseExpected bool) error

Changes the response expected flag of the function specified by the function ID parameter. This flag can only be changed for setter (default value: false) and callback configuration functions (default value: true). For getter functions it is always enabled.

Enabling the response expected flag for a setter function allows to detect timeouts and other error conditions calls of this setter as well. The device will then send a response for this purpose. If this flag is disabled for a setter function then no response is sent and errors are silently ignored, because they cannot be detected.

func (*LineBricklet) SetResponseExpectedAll ¶

func (device *LineBricklet) SetResponseExpectedAll(responseExpected bool)

Changes the response expected flag for all setter and callback configuration functions of this device at once.
