This is the description of the Rust API bindings for the Motion Detector Bricklet. General information and technical specifications for the Motion Detector Bricklet are summarized in its hardware description.
An installation guide for the Rust API bindings is part of their general description. Additional documentation can be found on docs.rs.
The example code below is Public Domain (CC0 1.0).

To allow non-blocking usage, nearly every function of the Rust bindings returns a wrapper around a mpsc::Receiver. To block until the function has finished and get your result, call one of the receiver's recv variants. Those return either the result sent by the device, or any error occurred.
Functions returning a result directly will block until the device has finished processing the request.
All functions listed below are thread-safe, those which return a receiver are lock-free.
MotionDetectorBricklet::
new
(uid: &str, ip_connection: &IpConnection) → MotionDetectorBricklet¶Parameters: |
|
---|---|
Returns: |
|
Creates a new MotionDetectorBricklet
object with the unique device ID uid
and adds
it to the IPConnection ip_connection
:
let motion_detector = MotionDetectorBricklet::new("YOUR_DEVICE_UID", &ip_connection);
This device object can be used after the IP connection has been connected.
MotionDetectorBricklet::
get_motion_detected
(&self) → ConvertingReceiver<u8>¶Returns: |
|
---|
Returns 1 if a motion was detected. How long this returns 1 after a motion was detected can be adjusted with one of the small potentiometers on the Motion Detector Bricklet, see here.
There is also a blue LED on the Bricklet that is on as long as the Bricklet is in the "motion detected" state.
The following constants are available for this function:
For motion:
MotionDetectorBricklet::
set_status_led_config
(&self, config: u8) → ConvertingReceiver<()>¶Parameters: |
|
---|
Sets the status led configuration.
By default the status LED turns on if a motion is detected and off is no motion is detected.
You can also turn the LED permanently on/off.
The following constants are available for this function:
For config:
New in version 2.0.1 (Plugin).
MotionDetectorBricklet::
get_status_led_config
(&self) → ConvertingReceiver<u8>¶Returns: |
|
---|
Returns the configuration as set by MotionDetectorBricklet::set_status_led_config
.
The following constants are available for this function:
For config:
New in version 2.0.1 (Plugin).
MotionDetectorBricklet::
get_identity
(&self) → ConvertingReceiver<Identity>¶Return Object: |
|
---|
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. There is also a constant for the device identifier of this Bricklet.
Callbacks can be registered to receive time critical or recurring data from the device. The registration is done with the corresponding get_*_callback_receiver function, which returns a receiver for callback events.
Note
Using callbacks for recurring events is always preferred compared to using getters. It will use less USB bandwidth and the latency will be a lot better, since there is no round trip time.
MotionDetectorBricklet::
get_motion_detected_callback_receiver
(&self) → ConvertingCallbackReceiver<()>¶Receivers created with this function receive Motion Detected events.
This callback is called after a motion was detected.
MotionDetectorBricklet::
get_detection_cycle_ended_callback_receiver
(&self) → ConvertingCallbackReceiver<()>¶Receivers created with this function receive Detection Cycle Ended events.
This callback is called when the detection cycle ended. When this callback is called, a new motion can be detected again after approximately 2 seconds.
Virtual functions don't communicate with the device itself, but operate only on the API bindings device object. They can be called without the corresponding IP Connection object being connected.
MotionDetectorBricklet::
get_api_version
(&self) → [u8; 3]¶Return Object: |
|
---|
Returns the version of the API definition 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.
MotionDetectorBricklet::
get_response_expected
(&mut self, function_id: u8) → bool¶Parameters: |
|
---|---|
Returns: |
|
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
MotionDetectorBricklet::set_response_expected
. 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.
The following constants are available for this function:
For function_id:
MotionDetectorBricklet::
set_response_expected
(&mut self, function_id: u8, response_expected: bool) → ()¶Parameters: |
|
---|
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:
For function_id:
MotionDetectorBricklet::
set_response_expected_all
(&mut self, response_expected: bool) → ()¶Parameters: |
|
---|
Changes the response expected flag for all setter and callback configuration functions of this device at once.
MotionDetectorBricklet::
DEVICE_IDENTIFIER
¶This constant is used to identify a Motion Detector Bricklet.
The MotionDetectorBricklet::get_identity
function and the IpConnection::get_enumerate_callback_receiver
callback of the IP Connection have a device_identifier
parameter to specify
the Brick's or Bricklet's type.
MotionDetectorBricklet::
DEVICE_DISPLAY_NAME
¶This constant represents the human readable name of a Motion Detector Bricklet.
