Macro reference

ChangeMeasurementTime

ChangeMeasurementTime
Adjusts the measurement result to counteract influence of the optical window. 
- BYTE Sensitvity
Range: 31-254 / Default: 69 
- VOID Return


ContinuousMeasurement

ContinuousMeasurement
Powers up and starts the continous measurement mode. Delays in between measurements readings must be provided by the user, 
- BYTE Resolution
0=1lx (120ms) / 1=0.5lx (120ms) / 2 = 4lx (16ms) 
- VOID Return


Initialise

Initialise
Stes up the I2C bus and initialises the termperature sensor ready for use. 
- VOID Return


OneTimeMeasurement

OneTimeMeasurement
Powers up and starts a single measurement before returning to power down mode. Waits for the measurement to be ready and returns the value. 
- BYTE Resolution
0=1lx (120ms) / 1=0.5lx (120ms) / 2 = 4lx (16ms) 
- UINT Return


PowerDown

PowerDown
Power Down the Device 
- VOID Return


ReadMeasurement

ReadMeasurement
Reads data from the Light Sensor as a 16-bit value. 
- UINT Return


ResetMeasurement

ResetMeasurement
Resets the device measurement register, Must be in the powered up state to do this. 
- VOID Return

Stop Delay
On older microcontroller devices there is a potential for the I2C hardware channel to lock up if there is not a 10ms delay between an I2C stop event and the next I2C start event. Most modern microcontrollers will not have a problem so this property can be disabled to speed up the I2C communications.  
Simulation
Simulate Comms
Allows the simulation data to come from the panel GUI or relayed via an injector component.
