TCP/IP - Industrial Dual Analog In Bricklet¶

Basic Functions¶

BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogIn.get_voltage¶

Function ID:	1
Request:	channel – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 1]
Response:	voltage – Type: int32, Unit: 1 mV, Range: [-35000 to 35000]

Returns the voltage for the given channel.

If you want to get the voltage periodically, it is recommended to use the CALLBACK_VOLTAGE callback and set the period with set_voltage_callback_period.

Advanced Functions¶

BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogIn.set_sample_rate¶

Function ID:	8
Request:	rate – Type: uint8, Range: See meanings, Default: 6

The following meanings are defined for the elements of this function:

For rate:

• 0 = 976 SPS
• 1 = 488 SPS

BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogIn.get_identity¶

Function ID:	255
Request:	empty payload
Response:	uid – Type: char[8] connected_uid – Type: char[8] position – Type: char, Range: ['a' to 'h', 'z'] hardware_version – Type: uint8[3] 0: major – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 255] 1: minor – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 255] 2: revision – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 255] firmware_version – Type: uint8[3] 0: major – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 255] 1: minor – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 255] 2: revision – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 255] device_identifier – Type: uint16, Range: [0 to 216 - 1]

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 is always at position 'z'.

The device identifier numbers can be found here. 

Callback Configuration Functions¶

BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogIn.set_voltage_callback_period¶

Function ID:	2
Request:	channel – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 1] period – Type: uint32, Unit: 1 ms, Range: [0 to 232 - 1], Default: 0

Sets the period with which the CALLBACK_VOLTAGE callback is triggered periodically for the given channel. A value of 0 turns the callback off.

The CALLBACK_VOLTAGE callback is only triggered if the voltage has changed since the last triggering.

Response:	no response

Sets the thresholds for the CALLBACK_VOLTAGE_REACHED callback for the given channel.

The following options are possible:

Option	Description
'x'	Callback is turned off
'o'	Callback is triggered when the voltage is outside the min and max values
'i'	Callback is triggered when the voltage is inside the min and max values
'<'	Callback is triggered when the voltage is smaller than the min value (max is ignored)

The following meanings are defined for the elements of this function:

For option:

Function ID:	13
Response:	channel – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 1] voltage – Type: int32, Unit: 1 mV, Range: [-35000 to 35000]

This callback is triggered periodically with the period that is set by set_voltage_callback_period. The response value is the voltage of the channel.

The CALLBACK_VOLTAGE callback is only triggered if the voltage has changed since the last triggering.

BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogIn.CALLBACK_VOLTAGE_REACHED¶

Function ID:	14
Response:	channel – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 1] voltage – Type: int32, Unit: 1 mV, Range: [-35000 to 35000]

This callback is triggered when the threshold as set by set_voltage_callback_threshold is reached. The response value is the voltage of the channel.

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