Basic Functions¶

func lcd_128x64_bricklet.New(uid string, ipcon *IPConnection) (device LCD128x64Bricklet, err error)¶

Parameters:	uid – Type: string ipcon – Type: *IPConnection
Returns:	device – Type: LCD128x64Bricklet err – Type: error

Creates a new LCD128x64Bricklet object with the unique device ID uid and adds it to the IPConnection ipcon:

device, err := lcd_128x64_bricklet.New("YOUR_DEVICE_UID", &ipcon)

This device object can be used after the IPConnection has been connected.

func (*LCD128x64Bricklet) WritePixels(xStart uint8, yStart uint8, xEnd uint8, yEnd uint8, pixels []bool) (err error)¶

Parameters:	xStart – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 127] yStart – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 63] xEnd – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 127] yEnd – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 63] pixels – Type: []bool, Length: variable
Returns:	err – Type: error

Writes pixels to the specified window.

The pixels are written into the window line by line top to bottom and each line is written from left to right.

If automatic draw is enabled (default) the pixels are directly written to the screen. Only pixels that have actually changed are updated on the screen, the rest stays the same.

If automatic draw is disabled the pixels are written to an internal buffer and the buffer is transferred to the display only after DrawBufferedFrame() is called. This can be used to avoid flicker when drawing a complex frame in multiple steps.

Automatic draw can be configured with the SetDisplayConfiguration() function.

func (*LCD128x64Bricklet) ReadPixels(xStart uint8, yStart uint8, xEnd uint8, yEnd uint8) (pixels []bool, err error)¶

Parameters:	xStart – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 127] yStart – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 63] xEnd – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 127] yEnd – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 63]
Returns:	pixels – Type: []bool, Length: variable err – Type: error

Reads pixels from the specified window.

The pixels are read from the window line by line top to bottom and each line is read from left to right.

If automatic draw is enabled (default) the pixels that are read are always the same that are shown on the display.

If automatic draw is disabled the pixels are read from the internal buffer (see DrawBufferedFrame()).

Automatic draw can be configured with the SetDisplayConfiguration() function.

func (*LCD128x64Bricklet) ClearDisplay() (err error)¶

Returns:	err – Type: error

Clears the complete content of the display.

If automatic draw is enabled (default) the pixels are directly cleared.

If automatic draw is disabled the the internal buffer is cleared and the buffer is transferred to the display only after DrawBufferedFrame() is called. This can be used to avoid flicker when drawing a complex frame in multiple steps.

Automatic draw can be configured with the SetDisplayConfiguration() function.

func (*LCD128x64Bricklet) WriteLine(line uint8, position uint8, text string) (err error)¶

Parameters:	line – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 7] position – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 21] text – Type: string, Length: up to 22
Returns:	err – Type: error

Writes text to a specific line with a specific position.

For example: (1, 10, "Hello") will write Hello in the middle of the second line of the display.

The display uses a special 5x7 pixel charset. You can view the characters of the charset in Brick Viewer.

If automatic draw is enabled (default) the text is directly written to the screen. Only pixels that have actually changed are updated on the screen, the rest stays the same.

If automatic draw is disabled the text is written to an internal buffer and the buffer is transferred to the display only after DrawBufferedFrame() is called. This can be used to avoid flicker when drawing a complex frame in multiple steps.

Automatic draw can be configured with the SetDisplayConfiguration() function.

This function is a 1:1 replacement for the function with the same name in the LCD 20x4 Bricklet. You can draw text at a specific pixel position and with different font sizes with the DrawText() function.

func (*LCD128x64Bricklet) DrawBufferedFrame(forceCompleteRedraw bool) (err error)¶

Parameters:	forceCompleteRedraw – Type: bool
Returns:	err – Type: error

Draws the currently buffered frame. Normally each call of WritePixels() and WriteLine() draws directly onto the display. If you turn automatic draw off (SetDisplayConfiguration()), the data is written in an internal buffer and only transferred to the display by calling this function. This can be used to avoid flicker when drawing a complex frame in multiple steps.

Set the force complete redraw to true to redraw the whole display instead of only the changed parts. Normally it should not be necessary to set this to true. It may only become necessary in case of stuck pixels because of errors.

func (*LCD128x64Bricklet) GetTouchPosition() (pressure uint16, x uint16, y uint16, age uint32, err error)¶

Returns:	pressure – Type: uint16, Range: [0 to 300] x – Type: uint16, Range: [0 to 127] y – Type: uint16, Range: [0 to 63] age – Type: uint32, Unit: 1 ms, Range: [0 to 232 - 1] err – Type: error

Returns the last valid touch position:

• Pressure: Amount of pressure applied by the user
• X: Touch position on x-axis
• Y: Touch position on y-axis
• Age: Age of touch press (how long ago it was)

func (*LCD128x64Bricklet) GetTouchGesture() (gesture uint8, duration uint32, pressureMax uint16, xStart uint16, yStart uint16, xEnd uint16, yEnd uint16, age uint32, err error)¶

Returns:	gesture – Type: uint8, Range: See constants duration – Type: uint32, Unit: 1 ms, Range: [0 to 232 - 1] pressureMax – Type: uint16, Range: [0 to 300] xStart – Type: uint16, Range: [0 to 127] yStart – Type: uint16, Range: [0 to 63] xEnd – Type: uint16, Range: [0 to 127] yEnd – Type: uint16, Range: [0 to 63] age – Type: uint32, Unit: 1 ms, Range: [0 to 232 - 1] err – Type: error

Returns one of four touch gestures that can be automatically detected by the Bricklet.

The gestures are swipes from left to right, right to left, top to bottom and bottom to top.

Additionally to the gestures a vector with a start and end position of the gesture is provided. You can use this vector do determine a more exact location of the gesture (e.g. the swipe from top to bottom was on the left or right part of the screen).

The age parameter corresponds to the age of gesture (how long ago it was).

func (*LCD128x64Bricklet) GetResponseExpected(functionId uint8) (responseExpected bool, err error)¶

Parameters:	functionId – Type: uint8, Range: See constants
Returns:	responseExpected – Type: bool err – Type: 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.

func (*LCD128x64Bricklet) SetResponseExpected(functionId uint8, responseExpected bool) (err error)¶

Parameters:	functionId – Type: uint8, Range: See constants responseExpected – Type: bool
Returns:	err – Type: 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.

The following constants are available for this function:

func (*LCD128x64Bricklet) SetResponseExpectedAll(responseExpected bool) (err error)¶

Parameters:	responseExpected – Type: bool
Returns:	err – Type: error

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

Internal Functions¶

Internal functions are used for maintenance tasks such as flashing a new firmware of changing the UID of a Bricklet. These task should be performed using Brick Viewer instead of using the internal functions directly.

func (*LCD128x64Bricklet) SetBootloaderMode(mode uint8) (status uint8, err error)¶

Parameters:	mode – Type: uint8, Range: See constants
Returns:	status – Type: uint8, Range: See constants err – Type: error

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.

The following constants are available for this function:

For mode:

• lcd_128x64_bricklet.BootloaderModeBootloader = 0
• lcd_128x64_bricklet.BootloaderModeFirmware = 1
• lcd_128x64_bricklet.BootloaderModeBootloaderWaitForReboot = 2
• lcd_128x64_bricklet.BootloaderModeFirmwareWaitForReboot = 3
• lcd_128x64_bricklet.BootloaderModeFirmwareWaitForEraseAndReboot = 4

For status:

• lcd_128x64_bricklet.BootloaderStatusOK = 0
• lcd_128x64_bricklet.BootloaderStatusInvalidMode = 1
• lcd_128x64_bricklet.BootloaderStatusNoChange = 2
• lcd_128x64_bricklet.BootloaderStatusEntryFunctionNotPresent = 3
• lcd_128x64_bricklet.BootloaderStatusDeviceIdentifierIncorrect = 4
• lcd_128x64_bricklet.BootloaderStatusCRCMismatch = 5

func (*LCD128x64Bricklet) GetBootloaderMode() (mode uint8, err error)¶

Returns:	mode – Type: uint8, Range: See constants err – Type: error

Returns the current bootloader mode, see SetBootloaderMode().

The following constants are available for this function:

For mode:

• lcd_128x64_bricklet.BootloaderModeBootloader = 0
• lcd_128x64_bricklet.BootloaderModeFirmware = 1
• lcd_128x64_bricklet.BootloaderModeBootloaderWaitForReboot = 2
• lcd_128x64_bricklet.BootloaderModeFirmwareWaitForReboot = 3
• lcd_128x64_bricklet.BootloaderModeFirmwareWaitForEraseAndReboot = 4

func (*LCD128x64Bricklet) SetWriteFirmwarePointer(pointer uint32) (err error)¶

Parameters:	pointer – Type: uint32, Unit: 1 B, Range: [0 to 232 - 1]
Returns:	err – Type: error

Sets the firmware pointer for WriteFirmware(). 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.

func (*LCD128x64Bricklet) WriteFirmware(data [64]uint8) (status uint8, err error)¶

Parameters:	data – Type: [64]uint8, Range: [0 to 255]
Returns:	status – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 255] err – Type: error

Writes 64 Bytes of firmware at the position as written by SetWriteFirmwarePointer() 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.

func (*LCD128x64Bricklet) WriteUID(uid uint32) (err error)¶

Parameters:	uid – Type: uint32, Range: [0 to 232 - 1]
Returns:	err – Type: error

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.

func (*LCD128x64Bricklet) ReadUID() (uid uint32, err error)¶

Returns:	uid – Type: uint32, Range: [0 to 232 - 1] err – Type: error

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

Constants¶

lcd_128x64_bricklet.DeviceIdentifier¶

This constant is used to identify a LCD 128x64 Bricklet.

The GetIdentity() function and the (*IPConnection) RegisterEnumerateCallback callback of the IPConnection have a deviceIdentifier parameter to specify the Brick's or Bricklet's type.

lcd_128x64_bricklet.DeviceDisplayName¶

This constant represents the human readable name of a LCD 128x64 Bricklet.
