LabVIEW - Industrial Dual Analog In Bricklet 2.0

This is the description of the LabVIEW API bindings for the Industrial Dual Analog In Bricklet 2.0. General information and technical specifications for the Industrial Dual Analog In Bricklet 2.0 are summarized in its hardware description.

An installation guide for the LabVIEW API bindings is part of their general description.

API

Generally, every function of the LabVIEW bindings that outputs a value can report a Tinkerforge.TimeoutException. This error gets reported if the device did not respond. If a cable based connection is used, it is unlikely that this exception gets thrown (assuming nobody plugs the device out). However, if a wireless connection is used, timeouts will occur if the distance to the device gets too big.

The namespace for all Brick/Bricklet bindings and the IPConnection is Tinkerforge.*.

The Bricklet has two input channel. Functions that are related directly to a channel have a channel parameter to specify one of the two channels. Valid values for the channel parameter are 0 and 1.

Basic Functions

BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2(uid, ipcon) → industrialDualAnalogInV2
Input:
  • uid – Type: String
  • ipcon – Type: .NET Refnum (IPConnection)
Output:
  • industrialDualAnalogInV2 – Type: .NET Refnum (BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2)

Creates an object with the unique device ID uid. This object can then be used after the IP Connection is connected.

BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.GetVoltage(channel) → voltage
Input:
  • channel – Type: Byte, Range: [0 to 1]
Output:
  • voltage – Type: Int32, Unit: 1 mV, Range: [-35000 to 35000]

Returns the voltage for the given channel.

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

BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.SetChannelLEDConfig(channel, config)
Input:
  • channel – Type: Byte, Range: [0 to 1]
  • config – Type: Byte, Range: See constants, Default: 3

Each channel has a corresponding LED. You can turn the LED off, on or show a heartbeat. You can also set the LED to "Channel Status". In this mode the LED can either be turned on with a pre-defined threshold or the intensity of the LED can change with the measured value.

You can configure the channel status behavior with SetChannelLEDStatusConfig().

By default all channel LEDs are configured as "Channel Status".

The following constants are available for this function:

For config:

  • BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.CHANNEL_LED_CONFIG_OFF = 0
  • BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.CHANNEL_LED_CONFIG_ON = 1
  • BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.CHANNEL_LED_CONFIG_SHOW_HEARTBEAT = 2
  • BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.CHANNEL_LED_CONFIG_SHOW_CHANNEL_STATUS = 3
BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.GetChannelLEDConfig(channel) → config
Input:
  • channel – Type: Byte, Range: [0 to 1]
Output:
  • config – Type: Byte, Range: See constants, Default: 3

Returns the channel LED configuration as set by SetChannelLEDConfig()

The following constants are available for this function:

For config:

  • BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.CHANNEL_LED_CONFIG_OFF = 0
  • BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.CHANNEL_LED_CONFIG_ON = 1
  • BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.CHANNEL_LED_CONFIG_SHOW_HEARTBEAT = 2
  • BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.CHANNEL_LED_CONFIG_SHOW_CHANNEL_STATUS = 3
BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.SetChannelLEDStatusConfig(channel, min, max, config)
Input:
  • channel – Type: Byte, Range: [0 to 1]
  • min – Type: Int32, Unit: 1 mV, Range: [-231 to 231 - 1], Default: 0
  • max – Type: Int32, Unit: 1 mV, Range: [-231 to 231 - 1], Default: 10000
  • config – Type: Byte, Range: See constants, Default: 1

Sets the channel LED status config. This config is used if the channel LED is configured as "Channel Status", see SetChannelLEDConfig().

For each channel you can choose between threshold and intensity mode.

In threshold mode you can define a positive or a negative threshold. For a positive threshold set the "min" parameter to the threshold value in mV above which the LED should turn on and set the "max" parameter to 0. Example: If you set a positive threshold of 10V, the LED will turn on as soon as the voltage exceeds 10V and turn off again if it goes below 10V. For a negative threshold set the "max" parameter to the threshold value in mV below which the LED should turn on and set the "min" parameter to 0. Example: If you set a negative threshold of 10V, the LED will turn on as soon as the voltage goes below 10V and the LED will turn off when the voltage exceeds 10V.

In intensity mode you can define a range in mV that is used to scale the brightness of the LED. Example with min=4V, max=20V: The LED is off at 4V, on at 20V and the brightness is linearly scaled between the values 4V and 20V. If the min value is greater than the max value, the LED brightness is scaled the other way around.

The following constants are available for this function:

BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.Reset()

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!

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

BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.SetVoltageCallbackConfiguration(channel, period, valueHasToChange, option, min, max)
Input:
  • channel – Type: Byte, Range: [0 to 1]
  • period – Type: Int64, Unit: 1 ms, Range: [0 to 232 - 1], Default: 0
  • valueHasToChange – Type: Boolean, Default: F
  • option – Type: Char, Range: See constants, Default: "x"
  • min – Type: Int32, Unit: 1 mV, Range: [-231 to 231 - 1], Default: 0
  • max – Type: Int32, Unit: 1 mV, Range: [-231 to 231 - 1], Default: 0

The period is the period with which the VoltageCallback 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 VoltageCallback 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:

  • BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.THRESHOLD_OPTION_OFF = "x"
  • BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.THRESHOLD_OPTION_OUTSIDE = "o"

Input:
  • period – Type: Int64, Unit: 1 ms, Range: [0 to 232 - 1], Default: 0
  • valueHasToChange – Type: Boolean, Default: F

The period is the period with which the AllVoltagesCallback 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 at least one of the values has changed. If the values 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.

New in version 2.0.6 (Plugin).

BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.GetAllVoltagesCallbackConfiguration() → period, valueHasToChange
Output:
  • period – Type: Int64, Unit: 1 ms, Range: [0 to 232 - 1], Default: 0
  • valueHasToChange – Type: Boolean, Default: F

Returns the callback configuration as set by SetAllVoltagesCallbackConfiguration().

New in version 2.0.6 (Plugin).

Callbacks

Callbacks can be registered to receive time critical or recurring data from the device. The registration is done by assigning a function to a callback property of the device object. The available callback property and their type of parameters are described below.

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.

event BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.VoltageCallback → sender, channel, voltage
Callback Output:
  • sender – Type: .NET Refnum (BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2)
  • channel – Type: Byte, Range: [0 to 1]
  • voltage – Type: Int32, Unit: 1 mV, Range: [-35000 to 35000]

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

The parameter is the same as GetVoltage().

event BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.AllVoltagesCallback → sender, voltages
Callback Output:
  • sender – Type: .NET Refnum (BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2)
  • voltages – Type: Int32[2], Unit: 1 mV, Range: [-35000 to 35000]

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

The parameters are the same as GetAllVoltages().

New in version 2.0.6 (Plugin).

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.

BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.GetAPIVersion() → apiVersion
Output:
  • apiVersion – Type: Byte[3]
    • 0: major – Type: Byte, Range: [0 to 255]
    • 1: minor – Type: Byte, Range: [0 to 255]
    • 2: revision – Type: Byte, Range: [0 to 255]

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.

BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.GetResponseExpected(functionId) → responseExpected
Input:
  • functionId – Type: Byte, Range: See constants
Output:
  • responseExpected – Type: Boolean

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.

The following constants are available for this function:

For functionId:

  • BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.FUNCTION_SET_VOLTAGE_CALLBACK_CONFIGURATION = 2
  • BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.FUNCTION_SET_SAMPLE_RATE = 5

BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.SetResponseExpected(functionId, responseExpected)
Input:
  • functionId – Type: Byte, Range: See constants
  • responseExpected – Type: Boolean

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 functionId:

  • BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.FUNCTION_SET_VOLTAGE_CALLBACK_CONFIGURATION = 2
  • BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.FUNCTION_SET_SAMPLE_RATE = 5

Input:
  • responseExpected – Type: Boolean

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.

BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.SetBootloaderMode(mode) → status
Input:
  • mode – Type: Byte, Range: See constants
Output:
  • status – Type: Byte, Range: See constants

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.

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.

BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.WriteFirmware(data) → status
Input:
  • data – Type: Byte[64], Range: [0 to 255]
Output:
  • status – Type: Byte, Range: [0 to 255]

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.

BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.WriteUID(uid)
Input:
  • uid – Type: Int64, Range: [0 to 232 - 1]

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.

BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.ReadUID() → uid
Output:
  • uid – Type: Int64, Range: [0 to 232 - 1]

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

Constants

BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.DEVICE_IDENTIFIER

This constant is used to identify a Industrial Dual Analog In Bricklet 2.0.

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

BrickletIndustrialDualAnalogInV2.DEVICE_DISPLAY_NAME

This constant represents the human readable name of a Industrial Dual Analog In Bricklet 2.0.
