Function Documentation

hub_display_char()

pbio_error_t hub_display_char

(

const char

c

)

Displays a character or symbol on the light grid. This may be any letter (a–z), capital letter (A–Z) or one of the following symbols: !"#$%&'()*+,-./:;<=>?@[]^_`{|}.

Parameters

character

(str) The character or symbol to be displayed.

Return values

err	Error number.

hub_display_image()

pbio_error_t hub_display_image

(

uint8_t *

image

)

　Displays an image, represented by a matrix of brightness: % values.

Parameters

matrix

(Matrix) Matrix of intensities (brightness: %). A 2D list is also accepted.

Return values

err	Error number.

hub_display_number()

pbio_error_t hub_display_number

(

const int8_t

num

)

Displays a number in the range -99 to 99. A minus sign (-) is shown as a faint dot in the center of the display.

Parameters

number(int)

The number to be displayed.

Return values

err	Error number.

hub_display_off()

pbio_error_t hub_display_off

(

void

)

Turns off all the pixels.

Parameters

None

Return values

err	Error number.

hub_display_orientation()

pbio_error_t hub_display_orientation

(

uint8_t

up

)

Sets the orientation of the light matrix display.

Parameters

up	top (Choose PBIO_SIDE_TOP, PBIO_SIDE_LEFT, PBIO_SIDE_RIGHT, PBIO_SIDE_BOTTOM).

Return values

err	Error number.

hub_display_pixel()

pbio_error_t hub_display_pixel	(	uint8_t	row,
		uint8_t	column,
		uint8_t	brightness
	)

Turns on one pixel at the specified brightness.

Parameters

row(int)	Vertical grid index, starting at 0 from the top.
column(int)	Horizontal grid index, starting at 0 from the left.
brightness(brightness	%) Brightness of the pixel.

Return values

err	Error number.

hub_display_text()

pbio_error_t hub_display_text	(	const char *	text,
		uint32_t	on,
		uint32_t	off
	)

Displays a text string, one character at a time, with a pause between each character. After the last character is shown, all lights turn off.

Parameters

text	(str) The text to be displayed.
on	(time: ms) For how long a character is shown.
off	(time: ms) For how long the display is off between characters.

Return values

err	Error number.

hub_display_text_scroll()

pbio_error_t hub_display_text_scroll	(	const char *	text,
		uint32_t	delay
	)

Displays a text string in scroll mode.

Parameters

text	(str) The text to be displayed.
delay	(time: ms) Delay between each scroll.

Return values

err	Error number.
