Implementations

impl GpsV2Bricklet

pub const DEVICE_IDENTIFIER: u16 = 276u16

pub const DEVICE_DISPLAY_NAME: &'static str = "GPS Bricklet 2.0"

pub fn new(uid: &str, ip_connection: &IpConnection) -> GpsV2Bricklet

Creates an object with the unique device ID uid. This object can then be used after the IP Connection ip_connection is connected.

pub fn get_response_expected(
    &mut self,
    fun: GpsV2BrickletFunction
) -> Result<bool, GetResponseExpectedError>

Returns the response expected flag for the function specified by the function ID parameter. It is true if the function is expected to send a response, false otherwise.

For getter functions this is enabled by default and cannot be disabled, because those functions will always send a response. For callback configuration functions it is enabled by default too, but can be disabled by set_response_expected. For setter functions it is disabled by default and can be enabled.

Enabling the response expected flag for a setter function allows to detect timeouts and other error conditions calls of this setter as well. The device will then send a response for this purpose. If this flag is disabled for a setter function then no response is send and errors are silently ignored, because they cannot be detected.

See set_response_expected for the list of function ID constants available for this function.

pub fn set_response_expected(
    &mut self,
    fun: GpsV2BrickletFunction,
    response_expected: bool
) -> Result<(), SetResponseExpectedError>

Changes the response expected flag of the function specified by the function ID parameter. This flag can only be changed for setter (default value: false) and callback configuration functions (default value: true). For getter functions it is always enabled.

Enabling the response expected flag for a setter function allows to detect timeouts and other error conditions calls of this setter as well. The device will then send a response for this purpose. If this flag is disabled for a setter function then no response is send and errors are silently ignored, because they cannot be detected.

pub fn set_response_expected_all(&mut self, response_expected: bool)

Changes the response expected flag for all setter and callback configuration functions of this device at once.

pub fn get_pulse_per_second_callback_receiver(
    &self
) -> ConvertingCallbackReceiver<()>

This receiver is triggered precisely once per second, see PPS__.

The precision of two subsequent pulses will be skewed because of the latency in the USB/RS485/Ethernet connection. But in the long run this will be very precise. For example a count of 3600 pulses will take exactly 1 hour.

pub fn get_coordinates_callback_receiver(
    &self
) -> ConvertingCallbackReceiver<CoordinatesEvent>

This receiver is triggered periodically with the period that is set by set_coordinates_callback_period. The parameters are the same as for get_coordinates.

The get_coordinates_callback_receiver receiver is only triggered if the coordinates changed since the last triggering and if there is currently a fix as indicated by get_status.

pub fn get_status_callback_receiver(
    &self
) -> ConvertingCallbackReceiver<StatusEvent>

This receiver is triggered periodically with the period that is set by set_status_callback_period. The parameters are the same as for get_status.

The get_status_callback_receiver receiver is only triggered if the status changed since the last triggering.

pub fn get_altitude_callback_receiver(
    &self
) -> ConvertingCallbackReceiver<AltitudeEvent>

This receiver is triggered periodically with the period that is set by set_altitude_callback_period. The parameters are the same as for get_altitude.

The get_altitude_callback_receiver receiver is only triggered if the altitude changed since the last triggering and if there is currently a fix as indicated by get_status.

pub fn get_motion_callback_receiver(
    &self
) -> ConvertingCallbackReceiver<MotionEvent>

This receiver is triggered periodically with the period that is set by set_motion_callback_period. The parameters are the same as for get_motion.

The get_motion_callback_receiver receiver is only triggered if the motion changed since the last triggering and if there is currently a fix as indicated by get_status.

pub fn get_date_time_callback_receiver(
    &self
) -> ConvertingCallbackReceiver<DateTimeEvent>

This receiver is triggered periodically with the period that is set by set_date_time_callback_period. The parameters are the same as for get_date_time.

The get_date_time_callback_receiver receiver is only triggered if the date or time changed since the last triggering.

pub fn get_coordinates(&self) -> ConvertingReceiver<Coordinates>

Returns the GPS coordinates. Latitude and longitude are given in the DD.dddddd° format, the value 57123468 means 57.123468°. The parameter ns and ew are the cardinal directions for latitude and longitude. Possible values for ns and ew are ‘N’, ‘S’, ‘E’ and ‘W’ (north, south, east and west).

This data is only valid if there is currently a fix as indicated by get_status.

pub fn get_status(&self) -> ConvertingReceiver<Status>

Returns if a fix is currently available as well as the, the number of satellites that are in view.

There is also a green LED on the Bricklet that indicates the fix status.

pub fn get_altitude(&self) -> ConvertingReceiver<Altitude>

Returns the current altitude and corresponding geoidal separation.

Both values are given in cm.

This data is only valid if there is currently a fix as indicated by get_status.

pub fn get_motion(&self) -> ConvertingReceiver<Motion>

Returns the current course and speed. Course is given in hundredths degree and speed is given in hundredths km/h. A course of 0° means the Bricklet is traveling north bound and 90° means it is traveling east bound.

Please note that this only returns useful values if an actual movement is present.

This data is only valid if there is currently a fix as indicated by get_status.

pub fn get_date_time(&self) -> ConvertingReceiver<DateTime>

Returns the current date and time. The date is given in the format ddmmyy and the time is given in the format hhmmss.sss. For example, 140713 means 14.05.13 as date and 195923568 means 19:59:23.568 as time.

pub fn restart(&self, restart_type: u8) -> ConvertingReceiver<()>

Restarts the GPS Bricklet, the following restart types are available:

Value	Description

pub fn set_status_led_config(&self, config: u8) -> ConvertingReceiver<()>

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.

pub fn get_chip_temperature(&self) -> ConvertingReceiver<i16>

Returns the temperature in °C 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.

pub fn reset(&self) -> ConvertingReceiver<()>

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!

pub fn write_uid(&self, uid: u32) -> ConvertingReceiver<()>

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.

pub fn read_uid(&self) -> ConvertingReceiver<u32>

Returns the current UID as an integer. Encode as Base58 to get the usual string version.

pub fn get_identity(&self) -> ConvertingReceiver<Identity>

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’ or ‘d’.

The device identifier numbers can be found here. |device_identifier_constant|
