Actions

Actions can be used in rules by creating an action object. All actions return a Map<String, Object>. Returned values can be accessed by name, sometimes the type deduction needs some hints, as shown below:

val actions = getActions("tinkerforge", "tinkerforge:brickletio16:[UID]")
val hwVersion = actions.brickletIO16GetIdentity().get("hardwareVersion") as short[]
logInfo("Example", "Hardware version: " + hwVersion.get(0) + "." + hwVersion.get(1) + "." + hwVersion.get(2))

Basic Actions

brickletIO16SetPort(char port, short valueMask)
Parameters:
  • port – Type: char, Range: ['a' to 'b']
  • valueMask – Type: short, Range: [0 to 255]

Sets the output value (high or low) for a port ("a" or "b") with a bitmask (8bit). A 1 in the bitmask means high and a 0 in the bitmask means low.

For example: The value 15 or 0b00001111 will turn the pins 0-3 high and the pins 4-7 low for the specified port.

All running monoflop timers of the given port will be aborted if this function is called.

Note

This function does nothing for pins that are configured as input. Pull-up resistors can be switched on with the thing configuration.

brickletIO16GetPort(char port)
Parameters:
  • port – Type: char, Range: ['a' to 'b']
Return Map:
  • valueMask – Type: short, Range: [0 to 255]

Returns a bitmask of the values that are currently measured on the specified port. This function works if the pin is configured to input as well as if it is configured to output.

brickletIO16GetPortConfiguration(char port)
Parameters:
  • port – Type: char, Range: ['a' to 'b']
Return Map:
  • directionMask – Type: short, Range: [0 to 255]
  • valueMask – Type: short, Range: [0 to 255]

Returns a direction bitmask and a value bitmask for the specified port. A 1 in the direction bitmask means input and a 0 in the bitmask means output.

For example: A return value of (15, 51) or (0b00001111, 0b00110011) for direction and value means that:

  • pins 0 and 1 are configured as input pull-up,
  • pins 2 and 3 are configured as input default,
  • pins 4 and 5 are configured as output high
  • and pins 6 and 7 are configured as output low.
brickletIO16GetEdgeCount(short pin, boolean resetCounter)
Parameters:
  • pin – Type: short, Range: [0 to 1]
  • resetCounter – Type: boolean
Return Map:
  • count – Type: long, Range: [0 to 232 - 1]

Returns the current value of the edge counter for the selected pin on port A. You can configure the edges that are counted with the configuration of Edge Count 0.

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

New in version 2.0.3 (Plugin).

Advanced Actions

brickletIO16SetSelectedValues(char port, short selectionMask, short valueMask)
Parameters:
  • port – Type: char, Range: ['a' to 'b']
  • selectionMask – Type: short, Range: [0 to 255]
  • valueMask – Type: short, Range: [0 to 255]

Sets the output value (high or low) for a port ("a" or "b" with a bitmask, according to the selection mask. The bitmask is 8 bit long and a 1 in the bitmask means high and a 0 in the bitmask means low.

For example: The parameters ('a', 192, 128) or ('a', 0b11000000, 0b10000000) will turn pin 7 high and pin 6 low on port A, pins 0-6 will remain untouched.

Running monoflop timers for the selected pins will be aborted if this function is called.

Note

This function does nothing for pins that are configured as input. Pull-up resistors can be switched on with the thing configuration.

brickletIO16SetPortMonoflop(char port, short selectionMask, short valueMask, long time)
Parameters:
  • port – Type: char, Range: ['a' to 'b']
  • selectionMask – Type: short, Range: [0 to 255]
  • valueMask – Type: short, Range: [0 to 255]
  • time – Type: long, Unit: 1 ms, Range: [0 to 232 - 1]

Configures a monoflop of the pins specified by the second parameter as 8 bit long bitmask. The specified pins must be configured for output. Non-output pins will be ignored.

The third parameter is a bitmask with the desired value of the specified output pins. A 1 in the bitmask means high and a 0 in the bitmask means low.

The forth parameter indicates the time that the pins should hold the value.

If this function is called with the parameters ('a', 9, 1, 1500) or ('a', 0b00001001, 0b00000001, 1500): Pin 0 will get high and pin 3 will get low on port 'a'. In 1.5s pin 0 will get low and pin 3 will get high again.

A monoflop can be used as a fail-safe mechanism. For example: Lets assume you have a RS485 bus and an IO-16 Bricklet connected to one of the slave stacks. You can now call this function every second, with a time parameter of two seconds and pin 0 set to high. Pin 0 will be high all the time. If now the RS485 connection is lost, then pin 0 will get low in at most two seconds.

brickletIO16GetPortMonoflop(char port, short pin)
Parameters:
  • port – Type: char, Range: ['a' to 'b']
  • pin – Type: short, Range: [0 to 7]
Return Map:
  • value – Type: short, Range: [0 to 255]
  • time – Type: long, Unit: 1 ms, Range: [0 to 232 - 1]
  • timeRemaining – Type: long, Unit: 1 ms, Range: [0 to 232 - 1]

Returns (for the given pin) the current value and the time as set by Monoflop 0 as well as the remaining time until the value flips.

If the timer is not running currently, the remaining time will be returned as 0.

brickletIO16GetEdgeCountConfig(short pin)
Parameters:
  • pin – Type: short, Range: [0 to 1]
Return Map:
  • edgeType – Type: short, Range: See constants, Default: 0

Returns the edge type and debounce time for the selected pin of port A as set by the configuration of Edge Count 0.

The following constants are available for this function:

For edgeType:

  • val EDGE_TYPE_FALLING = 1
  • val EDGE_TYPE_BOTH = 2
