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

LCD128x64 lcd_128x64;
lcd_128x64_create(&lcd_128x64, "YOUR_DEVICE_UID", &ipcon);

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

void lcd_128x64_destroy(LCD128x64 *lcd_128x64)
Parameters:
  • lcd_128x64 – Type: LCD128x64 *

Removes the device object lcd_128x64 from its IPConnection and destroys it. The device object cannot be used anymore afterwards.

int lcd_128x64_write_pixels(LCD128x64 *lcd_128x64, uint8_t x_start, uint8_t y_start, uint8_t x_end, uint8_t y_end, bool *pixels, uint16_t pixels_length)
Parameters:
  • lcd_128x64 – Type: LCD128x64 *
  • x_start – Type: uint8_t, Range: [0 to 127]
  • y_start – Type: uint8_t, Range: [0 to 63]
  • x_end – Type: uint8_t, Range: [0 to 127]
  • y_end – Type: uint8_t, Range: [0 to 63]
  • pixels – Type: bool *
  • pixels_length – Type: uint16_t
Returns:
  • e_code – Type: int

Writes pixels to the specified window.

The pixels are written into the window line by line top to bottom and each line is written from left to right.

If automatic draw is enabled (default) the pixels are directly written to the screen. Only pixels that have actually changed are updated on the screen, the rest stays the same.

If automatic draw is disabled the pixels are written to an internal buffer and the buffer is transferred to the display only after lcd_128x64_draw_buffered_frame() is called. This can be used to avoid flicker when drawing a complex frame in multiple steps.

Automatic draw can be configured with the lcd_128x64_set_display_configuration() function.

int lcd_128x64_read_pixels(LCD128x64 *lcd_128x64, uint8_t x_start, uint8_t y_start, uint8_t x_end, uint8_t y_end, bool *ret_pixels, uint16_t *ret_pixels_length)
Parameters:
  • lcd_128x64 – Type: LCD128x64 *
  • x_start – Type: uint8_t, Range: [0 to 127]
  • y_start – Type: uint8_t, Range: [0 to 63]
  • x_end – Type: uint8_t, Range: [0 to 127]
  • y_end – Type: uint8_t, Range: [0 to 63]
Output Parameters:
  • ret_pixels – Type: bool *
  • ret_pixels_length – Type: uint16_t
Returns:
  • e_code – Type: int

Reads pixels from the specified window.

The pixels are read from the window line by line top to bottom and each line is read from left to right.

If automatic draw is enabled (default) the pixels that are read are always the same that are shown on the display.

If automatic draw is disabled the pixels are read from the internal buffer (see lcd_128x64_draw_buffered_frame()).

Automatic draw can be configured with the lcd_128x64_set_display_configuration() function.

int lcd_128x64_clear_display(LCD128x64 *lcd_128x64)
Parameters:
  • lcd_128x64 – Type: LCD128x64 *
Returns:
  • e_code – Type: int

Clears the complete content of the display.

If automatic draw is enabled (default) the pixels are directly cleared.

If automatic draw is disabled the the internal buffer is cleared and the buffer is transferred to the display only after lcd_128x64_draw_buffered_frame() is called. This can be used to avoid flicker when drawing a complex frame in multiple steps.

Automatic draw can be configured with the lcd_128x64_set_display_configuration() function.

int lcd_128x64_write_line(LCD128x64 *lcd_128x64, uint8_t line, uint8_t position, const char *text)
Parameters:
  • lcd_128x64 – Type: LCD128x64 *
  • line – Type: uint8_t, Range: [0 to 7]
  • position – Type: uint8_t, Range: [0 to 21]
  • text – Type: const char[22]
Returns:
  • e_code – Type: int

Writes text to a specific line with a specific position.

For example: (1, 10, "Hello") will write Hello in the middle of the second line of the display.

The display uses a special 5x7 pixel charset. You can view the characters of the charset in Brick Viewer.

If automatic draw is enabled (default) the text is directly written to the screen. Only pixels that have actually changed are updated on the screen, the rest stays the same.

If automatic draw is disabled the text is written to an internal buffer and the buffer is transferred to the display only after lcd_128x64_draw_buffered_frame() is called. This can be used to avoid flicker when drawing a complex frame in multiple steps.

Automatic draw can be configured with the lcd_128x64_set_display_configuration() function.

This function is a 1:1 replacement for the function with the same name in the LCD 20x4 Bricklet. You can draw text at a specific pixel position and with different font sizes with the lcd_128x64_draw_text() function.

int lcd_128x64_draw_buffered_frame(LCD128x64 *lcd_128x64, bool force_complete_redraw)
Parameters:
  • lcd_128x64 – Type: LCD128x64 *
  • force_complete_redraw – Type: bool
Returns:
  • e_code – Type: int

Draws the currently buffered frame. Normally each call of lcd_128x64_write_pixels() and lcd_128x64_write_line() draws directly onto the display. If you turn automatic draw off (lcd_128x64_set_display_configuration()), the data is written in an internal buffer and only transferred to the display by calling this function. This can be used to avoid flicker when drawing a complex frame in multiple steps.

Set the force complete redraw to true to redraw the whole display instead of only the changed parts. Normally it should not be necessary to set this to true. It may only become necessary in case of stuck pixels because of errors.

Callbacks

Callbacks can be registered to receive time critical or recurring data from the device. The registration is done with the lcd_128x64_register_callback() function:

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

lcd_128x64_register_callback(&lcd_128x64,
                             LCD_128X64_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.

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 lcd_128x64_get_api_version(LCD128x64 *lcd_128x64, uint8_t ret_api_version[3])
Parameters:
  • lcd_128x64 – Type: LCD128x64 *
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 lcd_128x64_get_response_expected(LCD128x64 *lcd_128x64, uint8_t function_id, bool *ret_response_expected)
Parameters:
  • lcd_128x64 – Type: LCD128x64 *
  • 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 lcd_128x64_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:

  • LCD_128X64_FUNCTION_WRITE_PIXELS = 1
  • LCD_128X64_FUNCTION_CLEAR_DISPLAY = 3

  • 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.

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 lcd_128x64_set_bootloader_mode(LCD128x64 *lcd_128x64, uint8_t mode, uint8_t *ret_status)
