        public BrickletColorV2.Color getColor()
                                       throws TinkerforgeException
        Returns the measured color of the sensor. The red (r), green (g), blue (b) and clear (c) colors are measured with four different photodiodes that are responsive at different wavelengths: .. image:: /Images/Bricklets/bricklet_color_wavelength_chart_600.jpg :scale: 100 % :alt: Chart Responsivity / Wavelength :align: center :target: ../../_images/Bricklets/bricklet_color_wavelength_chart_600.jpg If you want to get the color periodically, it is recommended to use the BrickletColorV2.ColorListener listener and set the period with setColorCallbackConfiguration(long, boolean).

        TinkerforgeException
      • setColorCallbackConfiguration

        public void setColorCallbackConfiguration​(long period,

                                           throws TinkerforgeException
        The period is the period with which the BrickletColorV2.ColorListener listener is triggered periodically. A value of 0 turns the listener off. If the `value has to change`-parameter is set to true, the listener is only triggered after the value has changed. If the value didn't change within the period, the listener is triggered immediately on change. If it is set to false, the listener is continuously triggered with the period, independent of the value.

                                                 throws TinkerforgeException
        The period is the period with which the BrickletColorV2.IlluminanceListener listener is triggered periodically. A value of 0 turns the listener off. If the `value has to change`-parameter is set to true, the listener is only triggered after the value has changed. If the value didn't change within the period, the listener is triggered immediately on change. If it is set to false, the listener is continuously triggered with the period, independent of the value. It is furthermore possible to constrain the listener with thresholds. The `option`-parameter together with min/max sets a threshold for the BrickletColorV2.IlluminanceListener listener. The following options are possible: \verbatim "Option", "Description" "'x'", "Threshold is turned off" "'o'", "Threshold is triggered when the value is *outside* the min and max values" "'i'", "Threshold is triggered when the value is *inside* or equal to the min and max values" "'<'", "Threshold is triggered when the value is smaller than the min value (max is ignored)" "'>'", "Threshold is triggered when the value is greater than the min value (max is ignored)" \endverbatim If the option is set to 'x' (threshold turned off) the listener is triggered with the fixed period.

      • setConfiguration

        public void setConfiguration​(int gain,
                                     int integrationTime)
                              throws TinkerforgeException
        Sets the configuration of the sensor. Gain and integration time can be configured this way. For configuring the gain: * 0: 1x Gain * 1: 4x Gain * 2: 16x Gain * 3: 60x Gain For configuring the integration time: * 0: 2.4ms * 1: 24ms * 2: 101ms * 3: 154ms * 4: 700ms Increasing the gain enables the sensor to detect a color from a higher distance. The integration time provides a trade-off between conversion time and accuracy. With a longer integration time the values read will be more accurate but it will take longer to get the conversion results.
        Throws:
        TinkerforgeException
      • getSPITFPErrorCount

        public BrickletColorV2.SPITFPErrorCount getSPITFPErrorCount()
                                                             throws TinkerforgeException
        Returns the error count for the communication between Brick and Bricklet. The errors are divided into * ACK checksum errors, * message checksum errors, * framing errors and * overflow errors. The errors counts are for errors that occur on the Bricklet side. All Bricks have a similar function that returns the errors on the Brick side.
        Throws:
        TinkerforgeException
      • setBootloaderMode

        public int setBootloaderMode​(int mode)
                              throws TinkerforgeException
        Sets the bootloader mode and returns the status after the requested mode change was instigated. You can change from bootloader mode to firmware mode and vice versa. A change from bootloader mode to firmware mode will only take place if the entry function, device identifier and CRC are present and correct. This function is used by Brick Viewer during flashing. It should not be necessary to call it in a normal user program.
        Throws:
        TinkerforgeException
      • setWriteFirmwarePointer

        public void setWriteFirmwarePointer​(long pointer)
                                     throws TinkerforgeException
        Sets the firmware pointer for writeFirmware(int[]). The pointer has to be increased by chunks of size 64. The data is written to flash every 4 chunks (which equals to one page of size 256). This function is used by Brick Viewer during flashing. It should not be necessary to call it in a normal user program.
        Throws:
        TinkerforgeException
      • writeFirmware

        public int writeFirmware​(int[] data)
                          throws TinkerforgeException
        Writes 64 Bytes of firmware at the position as written by setWriteFirmwarePointer(long) before. The firmware is written to flash every 4 chunks. You can only write firmware in bootloader mode. This function is used by Brick Viewer during flashing. It should not be necessary to call it in a normal user program.
        Throws:
        TinkerforgeException
      • setStatusLEDConfig

        public void setStatusLEDConfig​(int config)
                                throws TinkerforgeException
        Sets the status LED configuration. By default the LED shows communication traffic between Brick and Bricklet, it flickers once for every 10 received data packets. You can also turn the LED permanently on/off or show a heartbeat. If the Bricklet is in bootloader mode, the LED is will show heartbeat by default.
        Throws:
        TinkerforgeException
      • getChipTemperature

        public int getChipTemperature()
                               throws TinkerforgeException
        Returns the temperature as measured inside the microcontroller. The value returned is not the ambient temperature! The temperature is only proportional to the real temperature and it has bad accuracy. Practically it is only useful as an indicator for temperature changes.
        Throws:
        TinkerforgeException
      • reset

        public void reset()
                   throws TinkerforgeException
        Calling this function will reset the Bricklet. All configurations will be lost. After a reset you have to create new device objects, calling functions on the existing ones will result in undefined behavior!
        Throws:
        TinkerforgeException
      • writeUID

        public void writeUID​(long uid)
                      throws TinkerforgeException
        Writes a new UID into flash. If you want to set a new UID you have to decode the Base58 encoded UID string into an integer first. We recommend that you use Brick Viewer to change the UID.
        Throws:
        TinkerforgeException
      • getIdentity

        public Device.Identity getIdentity()
                                    throws TinkerforgeException
        Returns the UID, the UID where the Bricklet is connected to, the position, the hardware and firmware version as well as the device identifier. 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|
