TCP/IP - Voltage Bricklet¶

Basic Functions¶

BrickletVoltage.get_voltage¶

Function ID:	1
Request:	empty payload
Response:	voltage – Type: uint16, Unit: 1 mV, Range: [0 to 50000]

Returns the voltage of the sensor.

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¶

BrickletVoltage.get_analog_value¶

Function ID:	2
Request:	empty payload
Response:	value – Type: uint16, Range: [0 to 212 - 1]

Returns the value as read by a 12-bit analog-to-digital converter.

Note

The value returned by get_voltage is averaged over several samples to yield less noise, while get_analog_value gives back raw unfiltered analog values. The only reason to use get_analog_value is, if you need the full resolution of the analog-to-digital converter.

If you want the analog value periodically, it is recommended to use the CALLBACK_ANALOG_VALUE callback and set the period with set_analog_value_callback_period.

BrickletVoltage.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.
