Public Class Methods

bb_i2c_close(Integer pi,Integer SDA) → Integer click to toggle source

This function stops bit banging I2C on a pair of GPIO previously opened with [bb_i2c_open].

. .

 pi: >=0 (as returned by [*pigpio_start*]).
SDA: 0-31, the SDA GPIO used in a prior call to [*bb_i2c_open*]

. .

Returns 0 if OK, otherwise PI_BAD_USER_GPIO, or PI_NOT_I2C_GPIO.

VALUE pigpio_rbfn_bb_i2c_close(VALUE self, VALUE pi, VALUE SDA){
bb_i2c_open(Integer pi,Integer SDA, Integer SCL, Integer baud) → Integer click to toggle source

This function selects a pair of GPIO for bit banging I2C at a specified baud rate.

Bit banging I2C allows for certain operations which are not possible with the standard I2C driver.

baud rates as low as 50 
repeated starts 
clock stretching 
I2C on any pair of spare GPIO

. .

  pi: >=0 (as returned by [*pigpio_start*]).
 SDA: 0-31
 SCL: 0-31
baud: 50-500000

. .

Returns 0 if OK, otherwise PI_BAD_USER_GPIO, PI_BAD_I2C_BAUD, or PI_GPIO_IN_USE.

NOTE:

The GPIO used for SDA and SCL must have pull-ups to 3V3 connected. As a guide the hardware pull-ups on pins 3 and 5 are 1k8 in value.

bb_i2c_zip(Integer pi,Integer SDA, String inBuf, Integer outLen) → String outBuf (When Success)

This function executes a sequence of bit banged I2C operations. The operations to be performed are specified by the contents of inBuf which contains the concatenated command codes and associated data.

. .

    pi: >=0 (as returned by [*pigpio_start*]).
   SDA: 0-31 (as used in a prior call to [*bb_i2c_open*])
 inBuf: the concatenated I2C commands, see below
outBuf: buffer to hold returned data
outLen: size of output buffer

. .

Returns >= 0 if OK (the number of bytes read), otherwise PI_BAD_USER_GPIO, PI_NOT_I2C_GPIO, PI_BAD_POINTER, PI_BAD_I2C_CMD, PI_BAD_I2C_RLEN, PI_BAD_I2C_WLEN, PI_I2C_READ_FAILED, or PI_I2C_WRITE_FAILED.

The following command codes are supported:

Name    @ Cmd & Data   @ Meaning
End     @ 0            @ No more commands
Escape  @ 1            @ Next P is two bytes
Start   @ 2            @ Start condition
Stop    @ 3            @ Stop condition
Address @ 4 P          @ Set I2C address to P
Flags   @ 5 lsb msb    @ Set I2C flags to lsb + (msb << 8)
Read    @ 6 P          @ Read P bytes of data
Write   @ 7 P ...      @ Write P bytes of data

The address, read, and write commands take a parameter P. Normally P is one byte (0-255). If the command is preceded by the Escape command then P is two bytes (0-65535, least significant byte first).

The address and flags default to 0. The address and flags maintain their previous value until updated.

No flags are currently defined.

The returned I2C data is stored in consecutive locations of outBuf.

Set address 0x53
start, write 0x32, (re)start, read 6 bytes, stop
Set address 0x1E
start, write 0x03, (re)start, read 6 bytes, stop
Set address 0x68

VALUE pigpio_rbfn_bb_spi_xfer(VALUE self, VALUE pi, VALUE CS, VALUE txBuf){
bsc_i2c(Integer pi,Integer i2c_addr, PIGPIO::BscXfer bscxfer) → Integer click to toggle source

This function allows the Pi to act as a slave I2C device.

The data bytes (if any) are written to the BSC transmit FIFO and the bytes in the BSC receive FIFO are returned.

. .

      pi: >=0 (as returned by [*pigpio_start*]).
i2c_addr: 0-0x7F.
 bscxfer: a structure defining the transfer.

typedef struct
{
   uint32_t control;          // N/A
   int rxCnt;                 // Read only

   int txCnt;                 // Write
   char txBuf[BSC_FIFO_SIZE]; // Write
} bsc_xfer_t;

. .

txCnt is set to the number of bytes to be transmitted, possibly zero. The data itself should be copied to txBuf.

Any received data will be written to rxBuf with rxCnt set.

See [bsc_xfer] for details of the returned status value.

If there was an error the status will be less than zero (and will contain the error code).

Note that an i2c_address of 0 may be used to close the BSC device and reassign the used GPIO (18/19) as inputs.

VALUE pigpio_rbfn_bsc_i2c(VALUE self, VALUE pi, VALUE i2c_addr, VALUE bscxfer){
bsc_xfer(Integer pi, PIGPIO::BscXfer bscxfer) → Integer click to toggle source

This function provides a low-level interface to the SPI/I2C Slave peripheral. This peripheral allows the Pi to act as a slave device on an I2C or SPI bus.

I can't get SPI to work properly. I tried with a control word of 0x303 and swapped MISO and MOSI.

The function sets the BSC mode, writes any data in the transmit buffer to the BSC transmit FIFO, and copies any data in the BSC receive FIFO to the receive buffer.

. .

     pi: >=0 (as returned by [*pigpio_start*]).
bscxfer: a structure defining the transfer.

typedef struct
{
   uint32_t control;          // Write
   int rxCnt;                 // Read only
   char rxBuf[BSC_FIFO_SIZE]; // Read only
   int txCnt;                 // Write
   char txBuf[BSC_FIFO_SIZE]; // Write
} bsc_xfer_t;

. .

To start a transfer set control (see below) and copy the bytes to be sent (if any) to txBuf and set the byte count in txCnt.

Upon return rxCnt will be set to the number of received bytes placed in rxBuf.

The returned function value is the status of the transfer (see below).

If there was an error the status will be less than zero (and will contain the error code).

The most significant word of the returned status contains the number of bytes actually copied from txBuf to the BSC transmit FIFO (may be less than requested if the FIFO already contained untransmitted data).

Note that the control word sets the BSC mode. The BSC will stay in that mode until a different control word is sent.

The BSC peripheral uses GPIO 18 (SDA) and 19 (SCL) in I2C mode and GPIO 18 (MOSI), 19 (SCLK), 20 (MISO), and 21 (CE) in SPI mode. You need to swap MISO/MOSI between master and slave.

When a zero control word is received GPIO 18-21 will be reset to INPUT mode.

control consists of the following bits.

. .

22 21 20 19 18 17 16 15 14 13 12 11 10  9  8  7  6  5  4  3  2  1  0

hardware_PWM(Integer pi,Integer gpio, Integer PWMfreq, Integer PWMduty) → Integer click to toggle source

Starts hardware PWM on a GPIO at the specified frequency and dutycycle. Frequencies above 30MHz are unlikely to work.

NOTE: Any waveform started by [wave_send_*] or [wave_chain] will be cancelled.

This function is only valid if the pigpio main clock is PCM. The main clock defaults to PCM but may be overridden when the pigpio daemon is started (option -t).

. .

Returns 0 if OK, otherwise PI_NOT_PERMITTED, PI_BAD_GPIO, PI_NOT_HPWM_GPIO, PI_BAD_HPWM_DUTY, PI_BAD_HPWM_FREQ, or PI_HPWM_ILLEGAL.

The same PWM channel is available on multiple GPIO. The latest frequency and dutycycle setting will be used by all GPIO which share a PWM channel.

The GPIO must be one of the following.

. .

12  PWM channel 0  All models but A and B
13  PWM channel 1  All models but A and B
18  PWM channel 0  All models
19  PWM channel 1  All models but A and B

40  PWM channel 0  Compute module only
41  PWM channel 1  Compute module only
45  PWM channel 1  Compute module only
52  PWM channel 0  Compute module only
53  PWM channel 1  Compute module only

. .

The actual number of steps beween off and fully on is the integral part of 250 million divided by PWMfreq.

The actual frequency set is 250 million / steps.

There will only be a million steps for a PWMfreq of 250. Lower frequencies will have more steps and higher frequencies will have fewer steps. PWMduty is automatically scaled to take this into account.

The following command codes are supported:

Name    @ Cmd & Data @ Meaning
End     @ 0          @ No more commands
Escape  @ 1          @ Next P is two bytes
On      @ 2          @ Switch combined flag on

Read    @ 6 P        @ Read P bytes of data
Write   @ 7 P ...    @ Write P bytes of data

The address, read, and write commands take a parameter P. Normally P is one byte (0-255). If the command is preceded by the Escape command then P is two bytes (0-65535, least significant byte first).

The address defaults to that associated with the handle. The flags default to 0. The address and flags maintain their previous value until updated.

The returned I2C data is stored in consecutive locations of outBuf.

Set address 0x53, write 0x32, read 6 bytes

  bits: a mask indicating the GPIO to be notified.

. .

Returns 0 if OK, otherwise PI_BAD_HANDLE.

The notification sends state changes for each GPIO whose corresponding bit in bits is set.

Each notification occupies 12 bytes in the fifo as follows:

. . typedef struct

{
  uint16_t seqno;
  uint16_t flags;
  uint32_t tick;
  uint32_t level;
} gpioReport_t;

. .

seqno: starts at 0 each time the handle is opened and then increments by one for each report.

flags: three flags are defined, PI_NTFY_FLAGS_WDOG, PI_NTFY_FLAGS_ALIVE, and PI_NTFY_FLAGS_EVENT.

If bit 5 is set (PI_NTFY_FLAGS_WDOG) then bits 0-4 of the flags indicate a GPIO which has had a watchdog timeout.

If bit 6 is set (PI_NTFY_FLAGS_ALIVE) this indicates a keep alive signal on the pipe/socket and is sent once a minute in the absence of other notification activity.

If bit 7 is set (PI_NTFY_FLAGS_EVENT) then bits 0-4 of the flags indicate an event which has been triggered.

tick: the number of microseconds since system boot. It wraps around after 1h12m.

level: indicates the level of each GPIO. If bit 1<<x is set then GPIO x is high.

A notification is a method for being notified of GPIO state changes via a pipe.

Pipes are only accessible from the local machine so this function serves no purpose if you are using the library from a remote machine. The in-built (socket) notifications provided by [callback] should be used instead.

Notifications for handle x will be available at the pipe named /dev/pigpiox (where x is the handle number). E.g. if the function returns 15 then the notifications must be read from /dev/pigpio15.

pulsewidth: 0 (off), 500 (anti-clockwise) - 2500 (clockwise).

. .

Returns 0 if OK, otherwise PI_BAD_USER_GPIO, PI_BAD_PULSEWIDTH or PI_NOT_PERMITTED.

The selected pulsewidth will continue to be transmitted until changed by a subsequent call to set_servo_pulsewidth.

The pulsewidths supported by servos varies and should probably be determined by experiment. A value of 1500 should always be safe and represents the mid-point of rotation.

You can DAMAGE a servo if you command it to move beyond its limits.

OTHER UPDATE RATES:

This function updates servos at 50Hz. If you wish to use a different update frequency you will have to use the PWM functions.

. .

Update Rate (Hz)     50   100  200  400  500
1E6/Hz            20000 10000 5000 2500 2000

. .

Firstly set the desired PWM frequency using [set_PWM_frequency].

Then set the PWM range using [set_PWM_range] to 1E6/Hz. Doing this allows you to use units of microseconds when setting the servo pulsewidth.

E.g. If you want to update a servo connected to GPIO 25 at 400Hz

. .

set_PWM_frequency(25, 400);
set_PWM_range(25, 2500);

. .

Thereafter use the [set_PWM_dutycycle] function to move the servo, e.g. ::set_PWM_dutycycle(25, 1500) will set a 1500 us pulse.

px is 0 if CEx is active low (default) and 1 for active high.

ux is 0 if the CEx GPIO is reserved for SPI (default) and 1 otherwise.

A is 0 for the standard SPI device, 1 for the auxiliary SPI.

W is 0 if the device is not 3-wire, 1 if the device is 3-wire. Standard SPI device only.

nnnn defines the number of bytes (0-15) to write before switching the MOSI line to MISO to read data. This field is ignored if W is not set. Standard SPI device only.

T is 1 if the least significant bit is transmitted on MOSI first, the default (0) shifts the most significant bit out first. Auxiliary SPI device only.

R is 1 if the least significant bit is received on MISO first, the default (0) receives the most significant bit first. Auxiliary SPI device only.

bbbbbb defines the word size in bits (0-32). The default (0) sets 8 bits per word. Auxiliary SPI device only.

The [spi_read], [spi_write], and [spi_xfer] functions transfer data packed into 1, 2, or 4 bytes according to the word size in bits.

For bits 1-8 there will be one byte per character. For bits 9-16 there will be two bytes per character. For bits 17-32 there will be four bytes per character.

Multi-byte transfers are made in least significant byte first order.

E.g. to transfer 32 11-bit words buf should contain 64 bytes and count should be 64.

E.g. to transfer the 14 bit value 0x1ABC send the bytes 0xBC followed by 0x1A.

The other bits in flags should be set to zero.

NOTES:

The serial data is formatted as one start bit, [data_bits] data bits, and [stop_bits]/2 stop bits.

It is legal to add serial data streams with different baud rates to the same waveform.

numBytes

is the number of bytes of data in str.

The bytes required for each character depend upon [data_bits].

For [data_bits] 1-8 there will be one byte per character. For [data_bits] 9-16 there will be two bytes per character. For [data_bits] 17-32 there will be four bytes per character.

Each wave is transmitted in the order specified. A wave may occur multiple times per chain.

A blocks of waves may be transmitted multiple times by using the loop commands. The block is bracketed by loop start and end commands. Loops may be nested.

Delays between waves may be added with the delay command.

The following command codes are supported:

Name         @ Cmd & Data @ Meaning
Loop Start   @ 255 0      @ Identify start of a wave block
Loop Repeat  @ 255 1 x y  @ loop x + y*256 times
Delay        @ 255 2 x y  @ delay x + y*256 microseconds
Loop Forever @ 255 3      @ loop forever

If present Loop Forever must be the last entry in the chain.

The code is currently dimensioned to support a chain with roughly 600 entries and 20 loop counters.

The arg buf is binary stirng or integer array.

VALUE pigpio_rbfn_wave_clear(VALUE self,VALUE pi){
wave_create(Integer pi) → Integer click to toggle source

This function creates a waveform from the data provided by the prior calls to the [wave_add_*] functions. Upon success a wave id greater than or equal to 0 is returned, otherwise PI_EMPTY_WAVEFORM, PI_TOO_MANY_CBS, PI_TOO_MANY_OOL, or PI_NO_WAVEFORM_ID.

. .

pi: >=0 (as returned by [*pigpio_start*]).

. .

The data provided by the [wave_add_*] functions is consumed by this function.

As many waveforms may be created as there is space available. The wave id is passed to [wave_send_*] to specify the waveform to transmit.

Normal usage would be

Step 1. [wave_clear] to clear all waveforms and added data.

Step 2. [wave_add_*] calls to supply the waveform data.

Step 3. [wave_create] to create the waveform and get a unique id

Repeat steps 2 and 3 as needed.

Step 4. [wave_send_*] with the id of the waveform to transmit.

A waveform comprises one or more pulses. Each pulse consists of a PIGPIO::Pulse class.

The fields specify

1) the GPIO to be switched on at the start of the pulse. 2) the GPIO to be switched off at the start of the pulse. 3) the delay in microseconds before the next pulse.

Any or all the fields can be zero. It doesn't make any sense to set all the fields to zero (the pulse will be ignored).

When a waveform is started each pulse is executed in order with the specified delay between the pulse and the next.

Returns the new waveform id if OK, otherwise PI_EMPTY_WAVEFORM, PI_NO_WAVEFORM_ID, PI_TOO_MANY_CBS, or PI_TOO_MANY_OOL.
