Public Instance Methods
Returns the ambient temperature of the sensor.
If you want to get the value periodically, it is recommended to use the CALLBACK_AMBIENT_TEMPERATURE
callback. You can set the callback configuration with BrickletTemperatureIRV2#set_ambient_temperature_callback_configuration
.
# File lib/tinkerforge/bricklet_temperature_ir_v2.rb, line 113 def get_ambient_temperature check_validity send_request FUNCTION_GET_AMBIENT_TEMPERATURE, [], '', 10, 's' end
Returns the callback configuration as set by BrickletTemperatureIRV2#set_ambient_temperature_callback_configuration
.
# File lib/tinkerforge/bricklet_temperature_ir_v2.rb, line 151 def get_ambient_temperature_callback_configuration check_validity send_request FUNCTION_GET_AMBIENT_TEMPERATURE_CALLBACK_CONFIGURATION, [], '', 18, 'L ? k s s' end
Returns the current bootloader mode, see BrickletTemperatureIRV2#set_bootloader_mode
.
# File lib/tinkerforge/bricklet_temperature_ir_v2.rb, line 276 def get_bootloader_mode check_validity send_request FUNCTION_GET_BOOTLOADER_MODE, [], '', 9, 'C' end
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.
# File lib/tinkerforge/bricklet_temperature_ir_v2.rb, line 334 def get_chip_temperature check_validity send_request FUNCTION_GET_CHIP_TEMPERATURE, [], '', 10, 's' end
Returns the emissivity as set by BrickletTemperatureIRV2#set_emissivity
.
# File lib/tinkerforge/bricklet_temperature_ir_v2.rb, line 237 def get_emissivity check_validity send_request FUNCTION_GET_EMISSIVITY, [], '', 10, 'S' end
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 :ref:`Isolator Bricklet <isolator_bricklet>` is always at position 'z'.
The device identifier numbers can be found :ref:`here <device_identifier>`. |device_identifier_constant|
# File lib/tinkerforge/bricklet_temperature_ir_v2.rb, line 381 def get_identity send_request FUNCTION_GET_IDENTITY, [], '', 33, 'Z8 Z8 k C3 C3 S' end
Returns the object temperature of the sensor, i.e. the temperature of the surface of the object the sensor is aimed at.
The temperature of different materials is dependent on their `emissivity <BrickletTemperatureIRV2#set_emissivity
.
If you want to get the value periodically, it is recommended to use the CALLBACK_OBJECT_TEMPERATURE
callback. You can set the callback configuration with BrickletTemperatureIRV2#set_object_temperature_callback_configuration
.
# File lib/tinkerforge/bricklet_temperature_ir_v2.rb, line 168 def get_object_temperature check_validity send_request FUNCTION_GET_OBJECT_TEMPERATURE, [], '', 10, 's' end
Returns the callback configuration as set by BrickletTemperatureIRV2#set_object_temperature_callback_configuration
.
# File lib/tinkerforge/bricklet_temperature_ir_v2.rb, line 206 def get_object_temperature_callback_configuration check_validity send_request FUNCTION_GET_OBJECT_TEMPERATURE_CALLBACK_CONFIGURATION, [], '', 18, 'L ? k s s' end
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.
# File lib/tinkerforge/bricklet_temperature_ir_v2.rb, line 254 def get_spitfp_error_count check_validity send_request FUNCTION_GET_SPITFP_ERROR_COUNT, [], '', 24, 'L L L L' end
Returns the configuration as set by BrickletTemperatureIRV2#set_status_led_config
# File lib/tinkerforge/bricklet_temperature_ir_v2.rb, line 322 def get_status_led_config check_validity send_request FUNCTION_GET_STATUS_LED_CONFIG, [], '', 9, 'C' end
Returns the current UID as an integer. Encode as Base58
to get the usual string version.
# File lib/tinkerforge/bricklet_temperature_ir_v2.rb, line 365 def read_uid check_validity send_request FUNCTION_READ_UID, [], '', 12, 'L' end
Registers a callback with ID id
to the block block
.
# File lib/tinkerforge/bricklet_temperature_ir_v2.rb, line 386 def register_callback(id, &block) callback = block @registered_callbacks[id] = callback end
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!
# File lib/tinkerforge/bricklet_temperature_ir_v2.rb, line 346 def reset check_validity send_request FUNCTION_RESET, [], '', 8, '' end
The period is the period with which the CALLBACK_AMBIENT_TEMPERATURE
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 CALLBACK_AMBIENT_TEMPERATURE
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.
# File lib/tinkerforge/bricklet_temperature_ir_v2.rb, line 144 def set_ambient_temperature_callback_configuration(period, value_has_to_change, option, min, max) check_validity send_request FUNCTION_SET_AMBIENT_TEMPERATURE_CALLBACK_CONFIGURATION, [period, value_has_to_change, option, min, max], 'L ? k s s', 8, '' end
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.
# File lib/tinkerforge/bricklet_temperature_ir_v2.rb, line 269 def set_bootloader_mode(mode) check_validity send_request FUNCTION_SET_BOOTLOADER_MODE, [mode], 'C', 9, 'C' end
Sets the `emissivity <BrickletTemperatureIRV2#get_object_temperature
.
The emissivity is usually given as a value between 0.0 and 1.0. A list of emissivities of different materials can be found `here <BrickletTemperatureIRV2#set_emissivity
has to be given with a factor of 65535 (16-bit). For example: An emissivity of 0.1 can be set with the value 6553, an emissivity of 0.5 with the value 32767 and so on.
- .. note
-
If you need a precise measurement for the object temperature, it is absolutely crucial that you also provide a precise emissivity.
The emissivity is stored in non-volatile memory and will still be used after a restart or power cycle of the Bricklet.
# File lib/tinkerforge/bricklet_temperature_ir_v2.rb, line 230 def set_emissivity(emissivity) check_validity send_request FUNCTION_SET_EMISSIVITY, [emissivity], 'S', 8, '' end
The period is the period with which the CALLBACK_OBJECT_TEMPERATURE
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 CALLBACK_OBJECT_TEMPERATURE
callback.
The following options are possible:

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.
# File lib/tinkerforge/bricklet_temperature_ir_v2.rb, line 315 def set_status_led_config(config) check_validity send_request FUNCTION_SET_STATUS_LED_CONFIG, [config], 'C', 8, '' end
Sets the firmware pointer for BrickletTemperatureIRV2#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.
# File lib/tinkerforge/bricklet_temperature_ir_v2.rb, line 288 def set_write_firmware_pointer(pointer) check_validity send_request FUNCTION_SET_WRITE_FIRMWARE_POINTER, [pointer], 'L', 8, '' end
Writes 64 Bytes of firmware at the position as written by BrickletTemperatureIRV2#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.
# File lib/tinkerforge/bricklet_temperature_ir_v2.rb, line 302 def write_firmware(data) check_validity send_request FUNCTION_WRITE_FIRMWARE, [data], 'C64', 9, 'C' end
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.
