Spyglass Control Panel UI Board Driver (spyglass.c)
[Drivers (for external hardware)]


Detailed Description

        #include "lcd.h"
        #include "i2c.h"
        #include "spyglass.h"
Overview
This library supports the 'Spyglass' I2C-controlled User Interface board. The Spyglass board has a standard 4x20 character LCD and a convenient array of pushbuttons for a user interface. The board also has a user-controllable piezo beeper. All of these functions are accessible via I2C bus, making it possible to have a complete user interface with just 4 wires (2 I/O and 2 power wires). The Spyglass board runs on 5V power.

Function Documentation

u08 spyglassGetPushbuttons void   ) 
 

Read the state of pushbuttons on the spyglass UI. Returns an 8-bit number representing the state of buttons S1-S7 in bits 0-6 respectively.

  • '0' bit value = button not pressed
  • '1' bit value = button is pressed

Definition at line 51 of file spyglass.c.

void spyglassSetBeeper u08  state  ) 
 

Sets the state of the beeper on the spyglass UI.

  • '0' state => beeper off
  • '1' state => beeper on

Definition at line 62 of file spyglass.c.

u08 spyglassSetLcdContrast u08  contrast  ) 
 

Sets the contrast voltage of the spyglass LCD. Lower numbers are darker contrast, higher numbers are lighter contrast.

Definition at line 71 of file spyglass.c.

void spyglassSetLeds u08  leds  ) 
 

Sets the state of LEDs on the spyglass UI. Argument is a 2-bit number representing the desired state of LEDs D2 & D3 respectively.

  • '0' bit value = LED off
  • '1' bit value = LED on

Definition at line 56 of file spyglass.c.
