Basic Functions¶

BrickletLCD128x64.write_pixels_low_level¶

Function ID:	1
Request:	x_start – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 127] y_start – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 63] x_end – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 127] y_end – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 63] pixels_length – Type: uint16, Range: [0 to 2¹³] pixels_chunk_offset – Type: uint16, Range: [0 to 2¹⁶ - 1] pixels_chunk_data – Type: bool[448]
Response:	no response

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 draw_buffered_frame is called. This can be used to avoid flicker when drawing a complex frame in multiple steps.

Automatic draw can be configured with the set_display_configuration function.

BrickletLCD128x64.read_pixels_low_level¶

Function ID:	2
Request:	x_start – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 127] y_start – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 63] x_end – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 127] y_end – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 63]
Response:	pixels_length – Type: uint16, Range: [0 to 2¹³] pixels_chunk_offset – Type: uint16, Range: [0 to 2¹⁶ - 1] pixels_chunk_data – Type: bool[480]

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 draw_buffered_frame).

Automatic draw can be configured with the set_display_configuration function.

BrickletLCD128x64.clear_display¶

Function ID:	3
Request:	empty payload
Response:	no response

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 draw_buffered_frame is called. This can be used to avoid flicker when drawing a complex frame in multiple steps.

Automatic draw can be configured with the set_display_configuration function.

BrickletLCD128x64.write_line¶

Function ID:	6
Request:	line – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 7] position – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 21] text – Type: char[22]
Response:	no response

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 draw_buffered_frame is called. This can be used to avoid flicker when drawing a complex frame in multiple steps.

Automatic draw can be configured with the set_display_configuration 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 draw_text function.

BrickletLCD128x64.draw_buffered_frame¶

Function ID:	7
Request:	force_complete_redraw – Type: bool
Response:	no response

Draws the currently buffered frame. Normally each call of write_pixels_low_level and write_line draws directly onto the display. If you turn automatic draw off (set_display_configuration), 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.

BrickletLCD128x64.get_touch_position¶

Function ID:	9
Request:	period – Type: uint32, Unit: 1 ms, Range: [0 to 2³² - 1], Default: 0 value_has_to_change – Type: bool, Default: false
Response:	no response

The period is the period with which the CALLBACK_TOUCH_POSITION 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.

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.

BrickletLCD128x64.set_bootloader_mode¶

Function ID:	235
Request:	mode – Type: uint8, Range: See meanings
Response:	status – Type: uint8, Range: See meanings

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 meanings are defined for the elements of this function:

For mode:

0 = Bootloader
1 = Firmware
2 = Bootloader Wait For Reboot
3 = Firmware Wait For Reboot
4 = Firmware Wait For Erase And Reboot

For status:

0 = OK
1 = Invalid Mode
2 = No Change
3 = Entry Function Not Present
4 = Device Identifier Incorrect
5 = CRC Mismatch

BrickletLCD128x64.get_bootloader_mode¶

Function ID:	236
Request:	empty payload
Response:	mode – Type: uint8, Range: See meanings

Returns the current bootloader mode, see set_bootloader_mode.

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

For mode:

0 = Bootloader
1 = Firmware
2 = Bootloader Wait For Reboot
3 = Firmware Wait For Reboot
4 = Firmware Wait For Erase And Reboot

BrickletLCD128x64.set_write_firmware_pointer¶

Function ID:	237
Request:	pointer – Type: uint32, Unit: 1 B, Range: [0 to 2³² - 1]
Response:	no response

Sets the firmware pointer for 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.

BrickletLCD128x64.write_firmware¶

Function ID:	238
Request:	data – Type: uint8[64], Range: [0 to 255]
Response:	status – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 255]

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

BrickletLCD128x64.write_uid¶

Function ID:	248
Request:	uid – Type: uint32, Range: [0 to 2³² - 1]
Response:	no response

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.

BrickletLCD128x64.read_uid¶

Function ID:	249
Request:	empty payload
Response:	uid – Type: uint32, Range: [0 to 2³² - 1]

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