Detailed Description

Screen printed to serial console.

Warning
Requires an SD-card library

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ Serial_System()

Serial_System::Serial_System ( )

Constructor object.

Parameters
screen&screen to link Serial_System to

Member Function Documentation

◆ beginFileSystem()

uint8_t Serial_System::beginFileSystem ( uint8_t pinCS = NOT_CONNECTED,
uint8_t port = 0,
int8_t pinDetect = -1,
int level = LOW )

File system and SD-card initialisation.

Parameters
pinCSSD selection
portSPI port, default = 0,
pinDetectSD detection, default = -1 = none
levelexpected level when SD-card available, default = LOW
Returns
RESULT_SUCCESS if SD card available, RESULT_ERROR otherwise
Note
Only for compatibility with Files, not implemented for Serial
Warning
FAT16 only SD-card
Note
Generally,
myFileBMP.beginFileSystem(myBoard.cardCS);

◆ endFileSystem()

uint8_t Serial_System::endFileSystem ( )

Close file system.

Returns
RESULT_SUCCESS is successful, RESULT_ERROR otherwise

◆ readScreen()

uint8_t Serial_System::readScreen ( STRING_CONST_TYPE name,
uint8_t multiplier = 1 )

Load and display header file.

Parameters
namefile name
Note
The BMP file should be 5-5-5 coded.
Parameters
multipliersize of each dot, default = 1
  • Recommended 2 for small screens
  • Otherwise 1 for medium and large screens
Returns
RESULT_SUCCESS is successful, RESULT_ERROR otherwise
Warning
Prefer BMP file generated by saveScreen()

◆ resumeFileSystem()

uint8_t Serial_System::resumeFileSystem ( )

Resume file system after suspend.

Switch to SD-card SPI bus, if any

Returns
RESULT_SUCCESS is successful, RESULT_ERROR otherwise
Note
Only for compatibility with Files, not implemented for Serial

◆ saveScreen()

uint8_t Serial_System::saveScreen ( STRING_CONST_TYPE name,
uint8_t multiplier = 1 )

Screen printed to serial console.

Parameters
namefile name, only letters and numbers
multipliersize of each dot, default = 1
  • Recommended 2 for small screens
  • Otherwise 1 for medium and large screens
Returns
RESULT_SUCCESS is successful, RESULT_ERROR otherwise
Note
The resulting BMP file is 5-5-5 coded.

◆ saveWindow()

uint8_t Serial_System::saveWindow ( STRING_CONST_TYPE name,
uint16_t x0,
uint16_t y0,
uint16_t dx,
uint16_t dy,
uint8_t multiplier = 1 )

Partial window printed to serial console.

Parameters
namefile name, only letters and numbers
x0top left coordinate, x-axis
y0top left coordinate, y-axis
dxwidth to be copied, x-axis
dyheight to be copied, y-axis
multipliersize of each dot, default = 1
  • Recommended 2 for small screens
  • Otherwise 1 for medium and large screens
Returns
RESULT_SUCCESS is successful, RESULT_ERROR otherwise
Note
The resulting BMP file is 5-5-5 coded.

◆ setFolder()

uint8_t Serial_System::setFolder ( STRING_CONST_TYPE name)

Set the folder for files.

The folder is created if it does not exist

Parameters
namefolder name, ony letters and numbers
Returns
RESULT_SUCCESS is successful, RESULT_ERROR otherwise
Note
Only for compatibility with Files, not implemented for Serial

◆ suspendFileSystem()

uint8_t Serial_System::suspendFileSystem ( )

Suspend file system.

Switch to main SPI and ensure SD-card /CS HIGH

Returns
RESULT_SUCCESS is successful, RESULT_ERROR otherwise
Note
Only for compatibility with Files, not implemented for Serial
