Basic Functions¶

void uv_light_v2_create(UVLightV2 *uv_light_v2, const char *uid, IPConnection *ipcon)¶

Parameters:	uv_light_v2 – Type: UVLightV2 * uid – Type: const char * ipcon – Type: IPConnection *

Creates the device object uv_light_v2 with the unique device ID uid and adds it to the IPConnection ipcon:

UVLightV2 uv_light_v2;
uv_light_v2_create(&uv_light_v2, "YOUR_DEVICE_UID", &ipcon);

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

void uv_light_v2_destroy(UVLightV2 *uv_light_v2)¶

Parameters:	uv_light_v2 – Type: UVLightV2 *

Removes the device object uv_light_v2 from its IPConnection and destroys it. The device object cannot be used anymore afterwards.

int uv_light_v2_get_uva(UVLightV2 *uv_light_v2, int32_t *ret_uva)¶

Parameters:	uv_light_v2 – Type: UVLightV2 *
Output Parameters:	ret_uva – Type: int32_t, Unit: 1/10 mW/m², Range: [-1 to 231 - 1]
Returns:	e_code – Type: int

Returns the UVA intensity of the sensor. The sensor has not weighted the intensity with the erythemal action spectrum to get the skin-affecting irradiation. Therefore, you cannot just divide the value by 250 to get the UVA index. To get the UV index use uv_light_v2_get_uvi().

If the sensor is saturated, then -1 is returned, see uv_light_v2_set_configuration().

If you want to get the intensity periodically, it is recommended to use the UV_LIGHT_V2_CALLBACK_UVA callback and set the period with uv_light_v2_set_uva_callback_configuration().

If you want to get the value periodically, it is recommended to use the UV_LIGHT_V2_CALLBACK_UVA callback. You can set the callback configuration with uv_light_v2_set_uva_callback_configuration().

Returns:	e_code – Type: int

Returns the UVB intensity of the sensor. The sensor has not weighted the intensity with the erythemal action spectrum to get the skin-affecting irradiation. Therefore, you cannot just divide the value by 250 to get the UVB index. To get the UV index use uv_light_v2_get_uvi().

If the sensor is saturated, then -1 is returned, see uv_light_v2_set_configuration().

If you want to get the intensity periodically, it is recommended to use the UV_LIGHT_V2_CALLBACK_UVB callback and set the period with uv_light_v2_set_uvb_callback_configuration().

If you want to get the value periodically, it is recommended to use the UV_LIGHT_V2_CALLBACK_UVB callback. You can set the callback configuration with uv_light_v2_set_uvb_callback_configuration().

Returns the UV index of the sensor, the index is given in 1/10.

If the sensor is saturated, then -1 is returned, see uv_light_v2_set_configuration().

If you want to get the intensity periodically, it is recommended to use the UV_LIGHT_V2_CALLBACK_UVI callback and set the period with uv_light_v2_set_uvi_callback_configuration().

If you want to get the value periodically, it is recommended to use the UV_LIGHT_V2_CALLBACK_UVI callback. You can set the callback configuration with uv_light_v2_set_uvi_callback_configuration().

Advanced Functions¶

int uv_light_v2_set_configuration(UVLightV2 *uv_light_v2, uint8_t integration_time)¶

Parameters:	uv_light_v2 – Type: UVLightV2 * integration_time – Type: uint8_t, Range: See constants, Default: 3
Returns:	e_code – Type: int

Sets the configuration of the sensor. The integration time can be configured between 50 and 800 ms. With a shorter integration time the sensor reading updates more often but contains more noise. With a longer integration the sensor reading contains less noise but updates less often.

With a longer integration time (especially 800 ms) and a higher UV intensity the sensor can be saturated. If this happens the UVA/UVB/UVI readings are all -1. In this case you need to choose a shorter integration time.

The following constants are available for this function:

For integration_time:

• UV_LIGHT_V2_INTEGRATION_TIME_50MS = 0
• UV_LIGHT_V2_INTEGRATION_TIME_100MS = 1
• UV_LIGHT_V2_INTEGRATION_TIME_200MS = 2
• UV_LIGHT_V2_INTEGRATION_TIME_400MS = 3
• UV_LIGHT_V2_INTEGRATION_TIME_800MS = 4

int uv_light_v2_get_configuration(UVLightV2 *uv_light_v2, uint8_t *ret_integration_time)¶

Parameters:	uv_light_v2 – Type: UVLightV2 *
Output Parameters:	ret_integration_time – Type: uint8_t, Range: See constants, Default: 3
Returns:	e_code – Type: int

Returns the configuration as set by uv_light_v2_set_configuration().

The following constants are available for this function:

For ret_integration_time:

• UV_LIGHT_V2_INTEGRATION_TIME_50MS = 0
• UV_LIGHT_V2_INTEGRATION_TIME_100MS = 1
• UV_LIGHT_V2_INTEGRATION_TIME_200MS = 2

int uv_light_v2_get_spitfp_error_count(UVLightV2 *uv_light_v2, uint32_t *ret_error_count_ack_checksum, uint32_t *ret_error_count_message_checksum, uint32_t *ret_error_count_frame, uint32_t *ret_error_count_overflow)¶

Parameters:	uv_light_v2 – Type: UVLightV2 *
Output Parameters:	ret_error_count_ack_checksum – Type: uint32_t, Range: [0 to 232 - 1] ret_error_count_message_checksum – Type: uint32_t, Range: [0 to 232 - 1] ret_error_count_frame – Type: uint32_t, Range: [0 to 232 - 1] ret_error_count_overflow – Type: uint32_t, Range: [0 to 232 - 1]
Returns:	e_code – Type: int

Returns the error count for the communication between Brick and Bricklet.

The errors are divided into

• ACK checksum errors,
• message checksum errors,
• framing errors and
• overflow errors.

The errors counts are for errors that occur on the Bricklet side. All Bricks have a similar function that returns the errors on the Brick side.

int uv_light_v2_set_status_led_config(UVLightV2 *uv_light_v2, uint8_t config)¶

Parameters:	uv_light_v2 – Type: UVLightV2 * config – Type: uint8_t, Range: See constants, Default: 3
Returns:	e_code – Type: int

Sets the status LED configuration. By default the LED shows communication traffic between Brick and Bricklet, it flickers once for every 10 received data packets.

You can also turn the LED permanently on/off or show a heartbeat.

If the Bricklet is in bootloader mode, the LED is will show heartbeat by default.

The following constants are available for this function:

For config:

• UV_LIGHT_V2_STATUS_LED_CONFIG_OFF = 0
• UV_LIGHT_V2_STATUS_LED_CONFIG_ON = 1
• UV_LIGHT_V2_STATUS_LED_CONFIG_SHOW_HEARTBEAT = 2
• UV_LIGHT_V2_STATUS_LED_CONFIG_SHOW_STATUS = 3

int uv_light_v2_get_status_led_config(UVLightV2 *uv_light_v2, uint8_t *ret_config)¶

• UV_LIGHT_V2_STATUS_LED_CONFIG_SHOW_HEARTBEAT = 2
• UV_LIGHT_V2_STATUS_LED_CONFIG_SHOW_STATUS = 3

int uv_light_v2_get_chip_temperature(UVLightV2 *uv_light_v2, int16_t *ret_temperature)¶

Parameters:	uv_light_v2 – Type: UVLightV2 *
Output Parameters:	ret_temperature – Type: int16_t, Unit: 1 °C, Range: [-215 to 215 - 1]
Returns:	e_code – Type: int

Returns the temperature as measured inside the microcontroller. The value returned is not the ambient temperature!

The temperature is only proportional to the real temperature and it has bad accuracy. Practically it is only useful as an indicator for temperature changes.

int uv_light_v2_reset(UVLightV2 *uv_light_v2)¶

Parameters:	uv_light_v2 – Type: UVLightV2 *
Returns:	e_code – Type: int

Calling this function will reset the Bricklet. All configurations will be lost.

After a reset you have to create new device objects, calling functions on the existing ones will result in undefined behavior!

int uv_light_v2_get_identity(UVLightV2 *uv_light_v2, char ret_uid[8], char ret_connected_uid[8], char *ret_position, uint8_t ret_hardware_version[3], uint8_t ret_firmware_version[3], uint16_t *ret_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.

Callback Configuration Functions¶

void uv_light_v2_register_callback(UVLightV2 *uv_light_v2, int16_t callback_id, void (*function)(void), void *user_data)¶

Parameters:	uv_light_v2 – Type: UVLightV2 * callback_id – Type: int16_t function – Type: void (*)(void) user_data – Type: void *

Registers the given function with the given callback_id. The user_data will be passed as the last parameter to the function.

The available callback IDs with corresponding function signatures are listed below.

int uv_light_v2_set_uva_callback_configuration(UVLightV2 *uv_light_v2, uint32_t period, bool value_has_to_change, char option, int32_t min, int32_t max)¶

Returns:	e_code – Type: int

The period is the period with which the UV_LIGHT_V2_CALLBACK_UVA 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.

It is furthermore possible to constrain the callback with thresholds.

The option-parameter together with min/max sets a threshold for the UV_LIGHT_V2_CALLBACK_UVA callback.

The following options are possible:

Option	Description
'x'	Threshold is turned off
'o'	Threshold is triggered when the value is outside the min and max values
'i'	Threshold is triggered when the value is inside or equal to the min and max values
'<'	Threshold is triggered when the value is smaller than the min value (max is ignored)
'>'	Threshold is triggered when the value is greater than the min value (max is ignored)

If the option is set to 'x' (threshold turned off) the callback is triggered with the fixed period.

The following constants are available for this function:

For option:

• UV_LIGHT_V2_THRESHOLD_OPTION_OFF = 'x'
• UV_LIGHT_V2_THRESHOLD_OPTION_OUTSIDE = 'o'
• UV_LIGHT_V2_THRESHOLD_OPTION_INSIDE = 'i'

• UV_LIGHT_V2_THRESHOLD_OPTION_OFF = 'x'
• UV_LIGHT_V2_THRESHOLD_OPTION_OUTSIDE = 'o'
• UV_LIGHT_V2_THRESHOLD_OPTION_INSIDE = 'i'
• UV_LIGHT_V2_THRESHOLD_OPTION_SMALLER = '<'
• UV_LIGHT_V2_THRESHOLD_OPTION_GREATER = '>'

int uv_light_v2_set_uvi_callback_configuration(UVLightV2 *uv_light_v2, uint32_t period, bool value_has_to_change, char option, int32_t min, int32_t max)¶

Parameters:	uv_light_v2 – Type: UVLightV2 * period – Type: uint32_t, Unit: 1 ms, Range: [0 to 232 - 1], Default: 0 value_has_to_change – Type: bool, Default: false option – Type: char, Range: See constants, Default: 'x' min – Type: int32_t, Unit: 1/10 , Range: [-231 to 231 - 1], Default: 0 max – Type: int32_t, Unit: 1/10 , Range: [-231 to 231 - 1], Default: 0
Returns:	e_code – Type: int

The period is the period with which the UV_LIGHT_V2_CALLBACK_UVI 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.

It is furthermore possible to constrain the callback with thresholds.

The option-parameter together with min/max sets a threshold for the UV_LIGHT_V2_CALLBACK_UVI callback.

The following options are possible:

Option	Description
'x'	Threshold is turned off
'o'	Threshold is triggered when the value is outside the min and max values
'i'	Threshold is triggered when the value is inside or equal to the min and max values
'<'	Threshold is triggered when the value is smaller than the min value (max is ignored)
'>'	Threshold is triggered when the value is greater than the min value (max is ignored)

If the option is set to 'x' (threshold turned off) the callback is triggered with the fixed period.

The following constants are available for this function:

For option:

• UV_LIGHT_V2_THRESHOLD_OPTION_OFF = 'x'
• UV_LIGHT_V2_THRESHOLD_OPTION_OUTSIDE = 'o'
• UV_LIGHT_V2_THRESHOLD_OPTION_INSIDE = 'i'
• UV_LIGHT_V2_THRESHOLD_OPTION_SMALLER = '<'
• UV_LIGHT_V2_THRESHOLD_OPTION_GREATER = '>'

Callbacks¶

Callbacks can be registered to receive time critical or recurring data from the device. The registration is done with the uv_light_v2_register_callback() function:

void my_callback(int value, void *user_data) {
    printf("Value: %d\n", value);
}

uv_light_v2_register_callback(&uv_light_v2,
                              UV_LIGHT_V2_CALLBACK_EXAMPLE,
                              (void (*)(void))my_callback,
                              NULL);

The available constants with corresponding function signatures are described below.

This callback is triggered periodically according to the configuration set by uv_light_v2_set_uvi_callback_configuration().

The parameter is the same as uv_light_v2_get_uvi().

Virtual Functions¶

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.

int uv_light_v2_get_api_version(UVLightV2 *uv_light_v2, uint8_t ret_api_version[3])¶

Parameters:	uv_light_v2 – Type: UVLightV2 *
Output Parameters:	ret_api_version – Type: uint8_t[3] 0: major – Type: uint8_t, Range: [0 to 255] 1: minor – Type: uint8_t, Range: [0 to 255] 2: revision – Type: uint8_t, Range: [0 to 255]
Returns:	e_code – Type: int

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.

int uv_light_v2_get_response_expected(UVLightV2 *uv_light_v2, uint8_t function_id, bool *ret_response_expected)¶

Parameters:	uv_light_v2 – Type: UVLightV2 * function_id – Type: uint8_t, Range: See constants
Output Parameters:	ret_response_expected – Type: bool
Returns:	e_code – Type: int

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 uv_light_v2_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:

• UV_LIGHT_V2_FUNCTION_SET_UVA_CALLBACK_CONFIGURATION = 2
• UV_LIGHT_V2_FUNCTION_SET_UVB_CALLBACK_CONFIGURATION = 6
• UV_LIGHT_V2_FUNCTION_SET_UVI_CALLBACK_CONFIGURATION = 10
• UV_LIGHT_V2_FUNCTION_SET_CONFIGURATION = 13
• UV_LIGHT_V2_FUNCTION_SET_WRITE_FIRMWARE_POINTER = 237
• UV_LIGHT_V2_FUNCTION_SET_STATUS_LED_CONFIG = 239
• UV_LIGHT_V2_FUNCTION_RESET = 243
• UV_LIGHT_V2_FUNCTION_WRITE_UID = 248

int uv_light_v2_set_response_expected(UVLightV2 *uv_light_v2, uint8_t function_id, bool response_expected)¶

Parameters:	uv_light_v2 – Type: UVLightV2 * function_id – Type: uint8_t, Range: See constants response_expected – Type: bool
Returns:	e_code – Type: int

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:

• UV_LIGHT_V2_FUNCTION_SET_UVA_CALLBACK_CONFIGURATION = 2
• UV_LIGHT_V2_FUNCTION_SET_UVB_CALLBACK_CONFIGURATION = 6

Returns:	e_code – Type: int

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.

int uv_light_v2_set_bootloader_mode(UVLightV2 *uv_light_v2, uint8_t mode, uint8_t *ret_status)¶

Output Parameters:	ret_status – Type: uint8_t, Range: See constants
Returns:	e_code – Type: int

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.

Constants¶

UV_LIGHT_V2_DEVICE_IDENTIFIER¶

This constant is used to identify a UV Light Bricklet 2.0.

The uv_light_v2_get_identity() function and the IPCON_CALLBACK_ENUMERATE callback of the IP Connection have a device_identifier parameter to specify the Brick's or Bricklet's type.

UV_LIGHT_V2_DEVICE_DISPLAY_NAME¶

This constant represents the human readable name of a UV Light Bricklet 2.0.
