API

To allow non-blocking usage, nearly every function of the Rust bindings returns a wrapper around a mpsc::Receiver. To block until the function has finished and get your result, call one of the receiver's recv variants. Those return either the result sent by the device, or any error occurred.

Functions returning a result directly will block until the device has finished processing the request.

All functions listed below are thread-safe, those which return a receiver are lock-free.

Basic Functions

pub fn PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::new(uid: &str, ip_connection: &IpConnection) → PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet
Parameters:
  • uid – Type: &str
  • ip_connection – Type: &IPConnection
Returns:
  • piezo_speaker_v2 – Type: PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet

Creates a new PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet object with the unique device ID uid and adds it to the IPConnection ip_connection:

let piezo_speaker_v2 = PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::new("YOUR_DEVICE_UID", &ip_connection);

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

pub fn PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::set_beep(&self, frequency: u16, volume: u8, duration: u32) → ConvertingReceiver<()>
Parameters:
  • frequency – Type: u16, Unit: 1 Hz, Range: [50 to 15000]
  • volume – Type: u8, Range: [0 to 10]
  • duration – Type: u32, Unit: 1 ms, Range: [0 to 232 - 1] with constants

Beeps with the given frequency and volume for the duration.

A duration of 0 stops the current beep if any is ongoing. A duration of 4294967295 results in an infinite beep.

The following constants are available for this function:

For duration:

  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_BEEP_DURATION_OFF = 0
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_BEEP_DURATION_INFINITE = 4294967295
pub fn PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::get_beep(&self) → ConvertingReceiver<Beep>
Return Object:
  • frequency – Type: u16, Unit: 1 Hz, Range: [50 to 15000]
  • volume – Type: u8, Range: [0 to 10]
  • duration – Type: u32, Unit: 1 ms, Range: [0 to 232 - 1] with constants
  • duration_remaining – Type: u32, Unit: 1 ms, Range: [0 to 232 - 1]

Returns the last beep settings as set by PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::set_beep. If a beep is currently running it also returns the remaining duration of the beep.

If the frequency or volume is updated during a beep (with PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::update_frequency or PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::update_volume) this function returns the updated value.

The following constants are available for this function:

For duration:

  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_BEEP_DURATION_OFF = 0
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_BEEP_DURATION_INFINITE = 4294967295
pub fn PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::set_alarm(&self, start_frequency: u16, end_frequency: u16, step_size: u16, step_delay: u16, volume: u8, duration: u32) → ConvertingReceiver<()>
Parameters:
  • start_frequency – Type: u16, Unit: 1 Hz, Range: [50 to 14999]
  • end_frequency – Type: u16, Unit: 1 Hz, Range: [51 to 15000]
  • step_size – Type: u16, Unit: 1 Hz, Range: [0 to 14950]
  • step_delay – Type: u16, Unit: 1 ms, Range: [0 to 216 - 1]
  • volume – Type: u8, Range: [0 to 10]
  • duration – Type: u32, Unit: 1 ms, Range: [0 to 232 - 1] with constants

Creates an alarm (a tone that goes back and force between two specified frequencies).

The following parameters can be set:

  • Start Frequency: Start frequency of the alarm.
  • End Frequency: End frequency of the alarm.
  • Step Size: Size of one step of the sweep between the start/end frequencies.
  • Step Delay: Delay between two steps (duration of time that one tone is used in a sweep).
  • Duration: Duration of the alarm.

A duration of 0 stops the current alarm if any is ongoing. A duration of 4294967295 results in an infinite alarm.

Below you can find two sets of example settings that you can try out. You can use these as a starting point to find an alarm signal that suits your application.

Example 1: 10 seconds of loud annoying fast alarm

  • Start Frequency = 800
  • End Frequency = 2000
  • Step Size = 10
  • Step Delay = 1
  • Volume = 10
  • Duration = 10000

Example 2: 10 seconds of soft siren sound with slow build-up

  • Start Frequency = 250
  • End Frequency = 750
  • Step Size = 1
  • Step Delay = 5
  • Volume = 0
  • Duration = 10000

The following conditions must be met:

  • Start Frequency: has to be smaller than end frequency
  • End Frequency: has to be bigger than start frequency
  • Step Size: has to be small enough to fit into the frequency range
  • Step Delay: has to be small enough to fit into the duration

The following constants are available for this function:

For duration:

  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_ALARM_DURATION_OFF = 0
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_ALARM_DURATION_INFINITE = 4294967295
pub fn PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::get_alarm(&self) → ConvertingReceiver<Alarm>
Return Object:
  • start_frequency – Type: u16, Unit: 1 Hz, Range: [50 to 14999]
  • end_frequency – Type: u16, Unit: 1 Hz, Range: [51 to 15000]
  • step_size – Type: u16, Unit: 1 Hz, Range: [50 to 14950]
  • step_delay – Type: u16, Unit: 1 ms, Range: [0 to 216 - 1]
  • volume – Type: u8, Range: [0 to 10]
  • duration – Type: u32, Unit: 1 ms, Range: [0 to 232 - 1] with constants
  • duration_remaining – Type: u32, Unit: 1 ms, Range: [0 to 232 - 1] with constants
  • current_frequency – Type: u16, Unit: 1 Hz, Range: [50 to 15000]

Returns the last alarm settings as set by PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::set_alarm. If an alarm is currently running it also returns the remaining duration of the alarm as well as the current frequency of the alarm.

If the volume is updated during an alarm (with PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::update_volume) this function returns the updated value.

The following constants are available for this function:

For duration:

  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_ALARM_DURATION_OFF = 0
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_ALARM_DURATION_INFINITE = 4294967295

For duration_remaining:

  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_ALARM_DURATION_OFF = 0
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_ALARM_DURATION_INFINITE = 4294967295
pub fn PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::update_volume(&self, volume: u8) → ConvertingReceiver<()>
Parameters:
  • volume – Type: u8, Range: [0 to 10]

Updates the volume of an ongoing beep or alarm.

pub fn PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::update_frequency(&self, frequency: u16) → ConvertingReceiver<()>
Parameters:
  • frequency – Type: u16, Unit: 1 Hz, Range: [50 to 15000]

Updates the frequency of an ongoing beep.

Advanced Functions

pub fn PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::get_spitfp_error_count(&self) → ConvertingReceiver<SpitfpErrorCount>
Return Object:
  • error_count_ack_checksum – Type: u32, Range: [0 to 232 - 1]
  • error_count_message_checksum – Type: u32, Range: [0 to 232 - 1]
  • error_count_frame – Type: u32, Range: [0 to 232 - 1]
  • error_count_overflow – Type: u32, Range: [0 to 232 - 1]

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.

pub fn PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::set_status_led_config(&self, config: u8) → ConvertingReceiver<()>
Parameters:
  • config – Type: u8, Range: See constants, Default: 3

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:

  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_STATUS_LED_CONFIG_OFF = 0
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_STATUS_LED_CONFIG_ON = 1
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_STATUS_LED_CONFIG_SHOW_HEARTBEAT = 2
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_STATUS_LED_CONFIG_SHOW_STATUS = 3
pub fn PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::get_status_led_config(&self) → ConvertingReceiver<u8>
Returns:
  • config – Type: u8, Range: See constants, Default: 3

Returns the configuration as set by PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::set_status_led_config

The following constants are available for this function:

For config:

  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_STATUS_LED_CONFIG_OFF = 0
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_STATUS_LED_CONFIG_ON = 1
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_STATUS_LED_CONFIG_SHOW_HEARTBEAT = 2
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_STATUS_LED_CONFIG_SHOW_STATUS = 3
pub fn PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::get_chip_temperature(&self) → ConvertingReceiver<i16>
Returns:
  • temperature – Type: i16, Unit: 1 °C, Range: [-215 to 215 - 1]

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.

pub fn PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::reset(&self) → ConvertingReceiver<()>

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!

pub fn PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::get_identity(&self) → ConvertingReceiver<Identity>
Return Object:
  • uid – Type: String, Length: up to 8
  • connected_uid – Type: String, Length: up to 8
  • position – Type: char, Range: ['a' to 'h', 'z']
  • hardware_version – Type: [u8; 3]
    • 0: major – Type: u8, Range: [0 to 255]
    • 1: minor – Type: u8, Range: [0 to 255]
    • 2: revision – Type: u8, Range: [0 to 255]
  • firmware_version – Type: [u8; 3]
    • 0: major – Type: u8, Range: [0 to 255]
    • 1: minor – Type: u8, Range: [0 to 255]
    • 2: revision – Type: u8, Range: [0 to 255]
  • device_identifier – Type: u16, 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. There is also a constant for the device identifier of this Bricklet.

Callbacks

Callbacks can be registered to receive time critical or recurring data from the device. The registration is done with the corresponding get_*_callback_receiver function, which returns a receiver for callback events.

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.

pub fn PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::get_beep_finished_callback_receiver(&self) → ConvertingCallbackReceiver<()>

Receivers created with this function receive Beep Finished events.

This callback is triggered if a beep set by PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::set_beep is finished

pub fn PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::get_alarm_finished_callback_receiver(&self) → ConvertingCallbackReceiver<()>

Receivers created with this function receive Alarm Finished events.

This callback is triggered if a alarm set by PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::set_alarm is finished

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.

pub fn PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::get_api_version(&self) → [u8; 3]
Return Object:
  • api_version – Type: [u8; 3]
    • 0: major – Type: u8, Range: [0 to 255]
    • 1: minor – Type: u8, Range: [0 to 255]
    • 2: revision – Type: u8, 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.

pub fn PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::get_response_expected(&mut self, function_id: u8) → bool
Parameters:
  • function_id – Type: u8, Range: See constants
Returns:
  • response_expected – Type: bool

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 PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::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:

  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_FUNCTION_SET_BEEP = 1
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_FUNCTION_SET_ALARM = 3
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_FUNCTION_UPDATE_VOLUME = 5
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_FUNCTION_UPDATE_FREQUENCY = 6
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_FUNCTION_SET_WRITE_FIRMWARE_POINTER = 237
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_FUNCTION_SET_STATUS_LED_CONFIG = 239
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_FUNCTION_RESET = 243
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_FUNCTION_WRITE_UID = 248
pub fn PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::set_response_expected(&mut self, function_id: u8, response_expected: bool) → ()
Parameters:
  • function_id – Type: u8, Range: See constants
  • response_expected – Type: bool

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:

  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_FUNCTION_SET_BEEP = 1
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_FUNCTION_SET_ALARM = 3
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_FUNCTION_UPDATE_VOLUME = 5
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_FUNCTION_UPDATE_FREQUENCY = 6
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_FUNCTION_SET_WRITE_FIRMWARE_POINTER = 237
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_FUNCTION_SET_STATUS_LED_CONFIG = 239
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_FUNCTION_RESET = 243
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_FUNCTION_WRITE_UID = 248
pub fn PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::set_response_expected_all(&mut self, response_expected: bool) → ()
Parameters:
  • response_expected – Type: bool

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.

pub fn PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::set_bootloader_mode(&self, mode: u8) → ConvertingReceiver<u8>
Parameters:
  • mode – Type: u8, Range: See constants
Returns:
  • status – Type: u8, 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.

The following constants are available for this function:

For mode:

  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_BOOTLOADER_MODE_BOOTLOADER = 0
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_BOOTLOADER_MODE_FIRMWARE = 1

  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_BOOTLOADER_STATUS_INVALID_MODE = 1
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_BOOTLOADER_STATUS_NO_CHANGE = 2
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_BOOTLOADER_STATUS_ENTRY_FUNCTION_NOT_PRESENT = 3
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_BOOTLOADER_STATUS_DEVICE_IDENTIFIER_INCORRECT = 4
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_BOOTLOADER_STATUS_CRC_MISMATCH = 5
pub fn PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::get_bootloader_mode(&self) → ConvertingReceiver<u8>
Returns:
  • mode – Type: u8, Range: See constants

Returns the current bootloader mode, see PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::set_bootloader_mode.

The following constants are available for this function:

For mode:

  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_BOOTLOADER_MODE_BOOTLOADER = 0
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_BOOTLOADER_MODE_FIRMWARE = 1
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_BOOTLOADER_MODE_BOOTLOADER_WAIT_FOR_REBOOT = 2
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_BOOTLOADER_MODE_FIRMWARE_WAIT_FOR_REBOOT = 3
  • PIEZO_SPEAKER_V2_BRICKLET_BOOTLOADER_MODE_FIRMWARE_WAIT_FOR_ERASE_AND_REBOOT = 4
pub fn PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::set_write_firmware_pointer(&self, pointer: u32) → ConvertingReceiver<()>
Parameters:
  • pointer – Type: u32, Unit: 1 B, Range: [0 to 232 - 1]

Sets the firmware pointer for PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::write_firmware. 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.

pub fn PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::write_firmware(&self, data: [u8; 64]) → ConvertingReceiver<u8>
Parameters:
  • data – Type: [u8; 64], Range: [0 to 255]
Returns:
  • status – Type: u8, Range: [0 to 255]

Writes 64 Bytes of firmware at the position as written by PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::set_write_firmware_pointer 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.

pub fn PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::write_uid(&self, uid: u32) → ConvertingReceiver<()>
Parameters:
  • uid – Type: u32, 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.

pub fn PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::read_uid(&self) → ConvertingReceiver<u32>
Returns:
  • uid – Type: u32, Range: [0 to 232 - 1]

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

Constants

pub const PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::DEVICE_IDENTIFIER

This constant is used to identify a Piezo Speaker Bricklet 2.0.

The PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::get_identity function and the IpConnection::get_enumerate_callback_receiver callback of the IP Connection have a device_identifier parameter to specify the Brick's or Bricklet's type.

pub const PiezoSpeakerV2Bricklet::DEVICE_DISPLAY_NAME

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