API

Most functions of the C/C++ bindings return an error code (e_code). Data returned from the device, when a getter is called, is handled via output parameters. These parameters are labeled with the ret_ prefix.

Possible error codes are:

  • E_OK = 0
  • E_TIMEOUT = -1
  • E_NO_STREAM_SOCKET = -2
  • E_HOSTNAME_INVALID = -3
  • E_NO_CONNECT = -4
  • E_NO_THREAD = -5
  • E_NOT_ADDED = -6 (unused since C/C++ bindings version 2.0.0)
  • E_ALREADY_CONNECTED = -7
  • E_NOT_CONNECTED = -8
  • E_INVALID_PARAMETER = -9
  • E_NOT_SUPPORTED = -10
  • E_UNKNOWN_ERROR_CODE = -11
  • E_STREAM_OUT_OF_SYNC = -12
  • E_INVALID_UID = -13
  • E_NON_ASCII_CHAR_IN_SECRET = -14
  • E_WRONG_DEVICE_TYPE = -15
  • E_DEVICE_REPLACED = -16
  • E_WRONG_RESPONSE_LENGTH = -17

as defined in ip_connection.h.

All functions listed below are thread-safe.

Basic Functions

void co2_v2_create(CO2V2 *co2_v2, const char *uid, IPConnection *ipcon)
Parameters:
  • co2_v2 – Type: CO2V2 *
  • uid – Type: const char *
  • ipcon – Type: IPConnection *

Creates the device object co2_v2 with the unique device ID uid and adds it to the IPConnection ipcon:

CO2V2 co2_v2;
co2_v2_create(&co2_v2, "YOUR_DEVICE_UID", &ipcon);

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

void co2_v2_destroy(CO2V2 *co2_v2)
Parameters:
  • co2_v2 – Type: CO2V2 *

Removes the device object co2_v2 from its IPConnection and destroys it. The device object cannot be used anymore afterwards.

int co2_v2_get_all_values(CO2V2 *co2_v2, uint16_t *ret_co2_concentration, int16_t *ret_temperature, uint16_t *ret_humidity)
Parameters:
  • co2_v2 – Type: CO2V2 *
Output Parameters:
  • ret_co2_concentration – Type: uint16_t, Unit: 1 ppm, Range: [0 to 40000]
  • ret_temperature – Type: int16_t, Unit: 1/100 °C, Range: [-4000 to 12000]
  • ret_humidity – Type: uint16_t, Unit: 1/100 %, Range: [0 to 10000]
Returns:
  • e_code – Type: int

Returns all values measured by the CO2 Bricklet 2.0.

If you want to get the values periodically, it is recommended to use the CO2_V2_CALLBACK_ALL_VALUES callback. You can set the callback configuration with co2_v2_set_all_values_callback_configuration().

Note

The sensor is able to messure up to 120 °C. However it is only specified up to 70 °C. Exposing the Bricklet to higher temperatures might result in permanent damage.

int co2_v2_set_air_pressure(CO2V2 *co2_v2, uint16_t air_pressure)
Parameters:
  • co2_v2 – Type: CO2V2 *
  • air_pressure – Type: uint16_t, Unit: 1 hPa, Range: [0, 700 to 1200], Default: 0
Returns:
  • e_code – Type: int

The CO2 concentration depends (among other things) on the ambient air pressure.

To increase the accuracy of the CO2 Bricklet 2.0 you can set the current air pressure. You use the Barometer Bricklet 2.0 or the Air Quality Bricklet to get the current air pressure.

By default air pressure compensation is disabled. Once you set a value it will be used for compensation. You can turn the compensation off again by setting the value to 0.

It is sufficient to update the value every few minutes.

int co2_v2_get_air_pressure(CO2V2 *co2_v2, uint16_t *ret_air_pressure)
Parameters:
  • co2_v2 – Type: CO2V2 *
Output Parameters:
  • ret_air_pressure – Type: uint16_t, Unit: 1 hPa, Range: [0, 700 to 1200], Default: 0
Returns:
  • e_code – Type: int

Returns the ambient air pressure as set by co2_v2_set_air_pressure().

int co2_v2_set_temperature_offset(CO2V2 *co2_v2, uint16_t offset)
Parameters:
  • co2_v2 – Type: CO2V2 *
  • offset – Type: uint16_t, Unit: 1/100 °C, Range: [0 to 216 - 1]
Returns:
  • e_code – Type: int

Sets a temperature offset. A offset of 10 will decrease the measured temperature by 0.1 °C.

If you install this Bricklet into an enclosure and you want to measure the ambient temperature, you may have to decrease the measured temperature by some value to compensate for the error because of the heating inside of the enclosure.

We recommend that you leave the parts in the enclosure running for at least 24 hours such that a temperature equilibrium can be reached. After that you can measure the temperature directly outside of enclosure and set the difference as offset.

This temperature offset is used to calculate the relative humidity and CO2 concentration. In case the Bricklet is installed in an enclosure, we recommend to measure and set the temperature offset to improve the accuracy of the measurements.

It is sufficient to set the temperature offset once. The offset is saved in non-volatile memory and is applied again after a power loss.

int co2_v2_get_temperature_offset(CO2V2 *co2_v2, uint16_t *ret_offset)
Parameters:
  • co2_v2 – Type: CO2V2 *
Output Parameters:
  • ret_offset – Type: uint16_t, Unit: 1/100 °C, Range: [0 to 216 - 1]
Returns:
  • e_code – Type: int

Returns the temperature offset as set by co2_v2_set_temperature_offset().

int co2_v2_get_co2_concentration(CO2V2 *co2_v2, uint16_t *ret_co2_concentration)

  • 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.

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:

  • CO2_V2_STATUS_LED_CONFIG_OFF = 0
  • CO2_V2_STATUS_LED_CONFIG_ON = 1
  • CO2_V2_STATUS_LED_CONFIG_SHOW_HEARTBEAT = 2

Parameters:
  • co2_v2 – Type: CO2V2 *
Returns:
  • e_code – Type: int

Returns:
  • e_code – Type: int

Returns the callback configuration as set by co2_v2_set_temperature_callback_configuration().

The following constants are available for this function:

For ret_option:

  • CO2_V2_THRESHOLD_OPTION_OFF = 'x'
  • CO2_V2_THRESHOLD_OPTION_OUTSIDE = 'o'
  • CO2_V2_THRESHOLD_OPTION_INSIDE = 'i'
  • CO2_V2_THRESHOLD_OPTION_SMALLER = '<'
  • CO2_V2_THRESHOLD_OPTION_GREATER = '>'
int co2_v2_set_humidity_callback_configuration(CO2V2 *co2_v2, uint32_t period, bool value_has_to_change, char option, uint16_t min, uint16_t max)
Parameters:
  • co2_v2 – Type: CO2V2 *
  • 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'

  • max – Type: uint16_t, Unit: 1/100 %, Range: [0 to 216 - 1], Default: 0
Returns:
  • e_code – Type: int

The period is the period with which the CO2_V2_CALLBACK_HUMIDITY 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 CO2_V2_CALLBACK_HUMIDITY 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:

  • CO2_V2_THRESHOLD_OPTION_OFF = 'x'
  • CO2_V2_THRESHOLD_OPTION_OUTSIDE = 'o'
  • CO2_V2_THRESHOLD_OPTION_INSIDE = 'i'
  • CO2_V2_THRESHOLD_OPTION_SMALLER = '<'
  • CO2_V2_THRESHOLD_OPTION_GREATER = '>'

  • CO2_V2_THRESHOLD_OPTION_SMALLER = '<'
  • CO2_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 co2_v2_register_callback() function:

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

co2_v2_register_callback(&co2_v2,
                         CO2_V2_CALLBACK_EXAMPLE,
                         (void (*)(void))my_callback,
                         NULL);

The available constants with corresponding function signatures 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.

CO2_V2_CALLBACK_ALL_VALUES
void callback(uint16_t co2_concentration, int16_t temperature, uint16_t humidity, void *user_data)
Callback Parameters:
  • co2_concentration – Type: uint16_t, Unit: 1 ppm, Range: [0 to 40000]

The parameters are the same as co2_v2_get_all_values().

Note

The sensor is able to messure up to 120 °C. However it is only specified up to 70 °C. Exposing the Bricklet to higher temperatures might result in permanent damage.

CO2_V2_CALLBACK_CO2_CONCENTRATION

This callback is triggered periodically according to the configuration set by co2_v2_set_humidity_callback_configuration().

The parameter is the same as co2_v2_get_humidity().

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 co2_v2_get_api_version(CO2V2 *co2_v2, uint8_t ret_api_version[3])
Parameters:
  • co2_v2 – Type: CO2V2 *
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 co2_v2_get_response_expected(CO2V2 *co2_v2, uint8_t function_id, bool *ret_response_expected)
Parameters:
  • co2_v2 – Type: CO2V2 *
  • 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 co2_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:

  • CO2_V2_FUNCTION_SET_AIR_PRESSURE = 2
  • CO2_V2_FUNCTION_SET_TEMPERATURE_OFFSET = 4
  • CO2_V2_FUNCTION_SET_ALL_VALUES_CALLBACK_CONFIGURATION = 6
  • CO2_V2_FUNCTION_SET_CO2_CONCENTRATION_CALLBACK_CONFIGURATION = 10

  • 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.

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 co2_v2_set_bootloader_mode(CO2V2 *co2_v2, uint8_t mode, uint8_t *ret_status)

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

Constants

CO2_V2_DEVICE_IDENTIFIER

This constant is used to identify a CO2 Bricklet 2.0.

The co2_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.

CO2_V2_DEVICE_DISPLAY_NAME

This constant represents the human readable name of a CO2 Bricklet 2.0.
