'Current25 Bricklet'
CALLBACK_CURRENT =

This callback is triggered periodically with the period that is set by BrickletCurrent25#set_current_callback_period. The parameter is the current of the sensor.

The CALLBACK_CURRENT callback is only triggered if the current has changed since the last triggering.

15
CALLBACK_ANALOG_VALUE =

This callback is triggered periodically with the period that is set by BrickletCurrent25#set_analog_value_callback_period. The parameter is the analog value of the sensor.

The CALLBACK_ANALOG_VALUE callback is only triggered if the current has changed since the last triggering.

16
CALLBACK_CURRENT_REACHED =

This callback is triggered when the threshold as set by BrickletCurrent25#set_current_callback_threshold is reached. The parameter is the current of the sensor.

If the threshold keeps being reached, the callback is triggered periodically with the period as set by BrickletCurrent25#set_debounce_period.

17
CALLBACK_ANALOG_VALUE_REACHED =

This callback is triggered when the threshold as set by BrickletCurrent25#set_analog_value_callback_threshold is reached. The parameter is the analog value of the sensor.

If the threshold keeps being reached, the callback is triggered periodically with the period as set by BrickletCurrent25#set_debounce_period.

18
CALLBACK_OVER_CURRENT =

This callback is triggered when an over current is measured (see BrickletCurrent25#is_over_current).

Instance Method Details

#calibrateObject

Calibrates the 0 value of the sensor. You have to call this function when there is no current present.

The zero point of the current sensor is depending on the exact properties of the analog-to-digital converter, the length of the Bricklet cable and the temperature. Thus, if you change the Brick or the environment in which the Bricklet is used, you might have to recalibrate.

The resulting calibration will be saved on the EEPROM of the Current Bricklet.

end

#get_analog_valueObject

Returns the value as read by a 12-bit analog-to-digital converter.

.. note

The value returned by BrickletCurrent25#get_current is averaged over several samples to yield less noise, while BrickletCurrent25#get_analog_value gives back raw unfiltered analog values. The only reason to use BrickletCurrent25#get_analog_value is, if you need the full resolution of the analog-to-digital converter.

If you want the analog value periodically, it is recommended to use the CALLBACK_ANALOG_VALUE callback and set the period with BrickletCurrent25#set_analog_value_callback_period.

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|

Sets the thresholds for the CALLBACK_ANALOG_VALUE_REACHED callback.

The following options are possible:

"Option", "Description"

"'x'",    "Callback is turned off"
"'o'",    "Callback is triggered when the analog value is *outside* the min and max values"
