API

The RS485 Bricklet API is defined in the package github.com/Tinkerforge/go-api-bindings/rs485_bricklet

Nearly every function of the Go bindings can return an ipconnection.DeviceError, implementing the error interface. The error can have one of the following values:

  • ipconnection.DeviceErrorSuccess = 0
  • ipconnection.DeviceErrorInvalidParameter = 1
  • ipconnection.DeviceErrorFunctionNotSupported = 2
  • ipconnection.DeviceErrorUnknownError = 3

which correspond to the values returned from Bricks and Bricklets.

All functions listed below are thread-safe.

Basic Functions

func rs485_bricklet.New(uid string, ipcon *IPConnection) (device RS485Bricklet, err error)
Parameters:
  • uid – Type: string
  • ipcon – Type: *IPConnection
Returns:
  • device – Type: RS485Bricklet
  • err – Type: error

Creates a new RS485Bricklet object with the unique device ID uid and adds it to the IPConnection ipcon:

device, err := rs485_bricklet.New("YOUR_DEVICE_UID", &ipcon)

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

func (*RS485Bricklet) Write(message []rune) (messageChunkWritten uint64, err error)
Parameters:
  • message – Type: []rune, Length: variable
Returns:
  • messageWritten – Type: uint16, Range: [0 to 216 - 1]
  • err – Type: error

Writes characters to the RS485 interface. The characters can be binary data, ASCII or similar is not necessary.

The return value is the number of characters that were written.

See SetRS485Configuration() for configuration possibilities regarding baudrate, parity and so on.

func (*RS485Bricklet) Read(length uint16) (message []rune, err error)
Parameters:
  • length – Type: uint16, Range: [0 to 216 - 1]

Returns:
  • err – Type: error

In Modbus slave mode this function can be used to answer a master request to read coils.

  • Request ID: Request ID of the corresponding request that is being answered.
  • Coils: Data that is to be sent to the Modbus master for the corresponding request.

This function must be called from the ModbusSlaveReadCoilsRequestCallback callback with the Request ID as provided by the argument of the callback.

Upon success the function will return a non-zero request ID which will represent the current request initiated by the Modbus master. In case of failure the returned request ID will be 0.

When successful this function will also invoke the ModbusMasterReadCoilsResponseCallback callback. In this callback the Request ID provided by the callback argument must be matched with the Request ID returned from this function to verify that the callback is indeed for a particular request.

The callback parameters are request ID of the request, the number of the holding register and the register value to be written as received by the request. The number of the holding register is called starting address for backwards compatibility reasons. It is not an address, but instead a holding register number in the range of 1 to 65536. The prefix digit 4 (for holding register) is omitted.

To send a response of this request use ModbusSlaveAnswerWriteSingleRegisterRequest().

func (*RS485Bricklet) RegisterModbusMasterWriteSingleRegisterResponseCallback(func(requestID uint8, exceptionCode int8)) (registrationId uint64)
Callback Parameters:
  • requestID – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 255]

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.

func (*RS485Bricklet) GetAPIVersion() (apiVersion [3]uint8, err error)
Returns:
  • apiVersion – Type: [3]uint8
    • 0: major – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 255]
    • 1: minor – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 255]
    • 2: revision – Type: uint8, Range: [0 to 255]
  • err – Type: error

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.

func (*RS485Bricklet) GetResponseExpected(functionId uint8) (responseExpected bool, err error)
Parameters:
  • functionId – Type: uint8, Range: See constants
Returns:
  • responseExpected – Type: bool
  • err – Type: error

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:

  • rs485_bricklet.FunctionEnableReadCallback = 3
  • rs485_bricklet.FunctionDisableReadCallback = 4
  • rs485_bricklet.FunctionSetRS485Configuration = 6

func (*RS485Bricklet) SetResponseExpected(functionId uint8, responseExpected bool) (err error)
Parameters:
  • functionId – Type: uint8, Range: See constants
  • responseExpected – Type: bool
Returns:
  • err – Type: error

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.

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.

Parameters:
  • mode – Type: uint8, Range: See constants
Returns:
  • status – Type: uint8, 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:

  • rs485_bricklet.BootloaderModeBootloader = 0

Returns:
  • err – Type: error

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.

func (*RS485Bricklet) WriteFirmware(data [64]uint8) (status uint8, err error)
Parameters:

Returns:
  • uid – Type: uint32, Range: [0 to 232 - 1]
  • err – Type: error

Constants

rs485_bricklet.DeviceIdentifier

This constant is used to identify a RS485 Bricklet.

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

rs485_bricklet.DeviceDisplayName

This constant represents the human readable name of a RS485 Bricklet.
