.. highlight:: cpp Gpio ==== All boards come with general purpose I/O pins allowing users to attach their own sensors. Functions for communicating with the gpio pins are in the `gpio.h `_ header file. Analog Data ----------- Analog input data comes in 2 forms, an ADC value or a absolute reference value. These two modes are distinguished with the `MblMwGpioAnalogReadMode `_ enum. To read analog data, call `mbl_mw_datasignal_read `_ with your analog input signal. ADC values are represented as an unsigned integer and are simply ratiometric values with no units. The absolute reference value is also represented as an unsigned integer but has units of milli volts. :: #include "metawear/sensor/gpio.h" void gpio_analog_stream(MblMwMetaWearBoard* board) { auto adc_signal = mbl_mw_gpio_get_analog_input_data_signal(board, 0, MBL_MW_GPIO_ANALOG_READ_MODE_ADC); mbl_mw_datasignal_subscribe(adc_signal, [](const MblMwData* data) -> void { // Cast value to uint32_t* printf("gpio 0 adc= %d", *((uint32_t*) data->value)); }); mbl_mw_datasignal_read(adc_signal); auto abs_ref_signal = mbl_mw_gpio_get_analog_input_data_signal(board, 1, MBL_MW_GPIO_ANALOG_READ_MODE_ABS_REF); mbl_mw_datasignal_subscribe(abs_ref_signal, [](const MblMwData* data) -> void { // Cast value to uint32_t* printf("gpio 1 voltage= %dmV", *((uint32_t*) data->value)); }); mbl_mw_datasignal_read(abs_ref_signal); } Enhanced Analog Reads --------------------- Starting with firmware v1.2.3, additional features have been added to the analog read. To use these features, call `mbl_mw_datasignal_read_with_parameters `_ and use a `MblMwGpioAnalogReadParameters `_ struct as the parameter. Not all of the struct variables are required, for the read. To indicate that any of the pin variables are not used, set them to `MBL_MW_GPIO_UNUSED_PIN `_, and to indicate the delay variable is unused, set it to 0. :: // read with pullup pin 0, unused pull down pin, virtual pin 21, unused delay MblMwGpioAnalogReadParameters read_params= { 0, MBL_MW_GPIO_UNUSED_PIN, 0x15, 0}; mbl_mw_datasignal_read_with_parameters(adc_signal, &read_params); Pullup and Pulldown Pins ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Setting a pullup/pulldown pin will have the board automatically set the pull mode on that pin prior to reading the analog data. :: // pullup pin 0 before reading pin 0 MblMwGpioAnalogReadParameters read_params= { 0, MBL_MW_GPIO_UNUSED_PIN, MBL_MW_GPIO_UNUSED_PIN, 0 }; mbl_mw_datasignal_read_with_parameters(adc_signal, &read_params); Delay ^^^^^ The delay parameter controls how long the firmware will wait after the pull mode is set before reading the data. The firmware will wait for up to 1 millisecond or if unused, immediately read the analog signal. :: // wait 10 milliseconds after pulling down pin 2 before reading pin 1 MblMwGpioAnalogReadParameters read_params= { MBL_MW_GPIO_UNUSED_PIN, 2, MBL_MW_GPIO_UNUSED_PIN, 10 }; mbl_mw_datasignal_read_with_parameters(abs_ref_signal, &read_params); Virtual Pins ^^^^^^^^^^^^ Virtual pins are dummy GPIO pins that can be used to redirect the analog output to another pin. For example, you can assign a unique pin for each read configuration in your circuit which will send the data for the configurations to different message handlers. Keep in mind that when using virtual pins, you will need to subscribe to both the original and virtual pin for streaming. :: auto virtual_adc_signal = mbl_mw_gpio_get_analog_input_data_signal(board, 0x15, MBL_MW_GPIO_ANALOG_READ_MODE_ADC); mbl_mw_datasignal_subscribe(virtual_adc_signal, [](const MblMwData* data) -> void { // Cast value to uint32_t* printf("gpio 21 adc= %d", *((uint32_t*) data->value)); }); mbl_mw_datasignal_subscribe(adc_signal, nullptr); // read pin 0, direct output to pin 21 MblMwGpioAnalogReadParameters read_params= { MBL_MW_GPIO_UNUSED_PIN, MBL_MW_GPIO_UNUSED_PIN, 0x15, 0}; mbl_mw_datasignal_read_with_parameters(adc_signal, &read_params); Digital Data ------------ Digital input data is an input signal that is interpreted as a 1 or 0. As per the `product specification `_ section 6.1, a logical high is between 2.1 and 3.0 volts and low is between 0 and 0.9 volts. To ensure that your input signal resides within one of the valid ranges, set the pull mode with `mbl_mw_gpio_set_pull_mode `_. To read the data input value, issue a call to `mbl_mw_datasignal_read `_ with your digial signal. Digital data is interpreted as an unsigned integer. :: #include "metawear/sensor/gpio.h" void gpio_digital_stream(MblMwMetaWearBoard* board) { auto di_signal = mbl_mw_gpio_get_digital_input_data_signal(board, 2); mbl_mw_datasignal_subscribe(di_signal, [](const MblMwData* data) -> void { // Cast value to uint32_t* printf("gpio 2 digial= %d", *((uint32_t*) data->value)); }); mbl_mw_datasignal_read(di_signal); } Input Monitoring ---------------- The firmware can also monitor the digital state of the input signal and alert the user if the state changes. Set the change type by calling `mbl_mw_gpio_set_pin_change_type `_ and then call `mbl_mw_gpio_start_pin_monitoring `_ to start the monitoring. :: #include "metawear/sensor/gpio.h" void gpio_digital_stream(MblMwMetaWearBoard* board) { auto state_handler = [](const MblMwData* data) -> void { // Cast value to uint32_t* printf("gpio 3 state= %d", *((uint32_t*) data->value)); }; auto state_signal = mbl_mw_gpio_get_pin_monitor_data_signal(board, 3); mbl_mw_datasignal_subscribe(state_signal, state_handler); // Send notifications when the state transitions from high to low mbl_mw_gpio_set_pin_change_type(board, 3, MBL_MW_GPIO_PIN_CHANGE_TYPE_FALLING); mbl_mw_gpio_start_pin_monitoring(board, 3); }
