Revision: 1.0 4.3 API List and Descriptions Type Definitions Typedef Typedef Typedef Typedef Typedef Typedef char unsigned char short unsigned short unsigned long int i8; u8; i16; u16; u32; i32; LCD Control Module 1. i32 clrscrLcm( void ) Description: Clear the screen of the LCM. Return value: 0 after the screen is cleared. 2. i32 cursorLcm( bool mode ) Description: According to the argument ‘mode’, show the cursor on the LCM screen or eliminate the cursor on the LCM screen.
Revision: 1.0 4. i32 displayLcm( bool mode ) Description: Show the text on the LCM screen or eliminate the text on the LCM screen. The content of the text is not altered. mode = true, show the text. mode = false, eliminate the text. Return value: 0 after the text has been shown or eliminated. 5. i32 getKeyLcm( void ) Description: Scan the LCM and return the identification of the pressed direction key. Return value: ‘UP’ if the ‘up’ direction key is pressed. ‘RIGHT’ if the ‘right’ direction key is pressed.
Revision: 1.0 GPIO and Watchdog GPIO 1. Syntax: i32 setChDir( u8 val ) Description: Set the direction (Input/Output) of GPIO ports according to the parameter ‘val’. Parameters: The parameter ‘val’ is an unsigned character. Each bit of *val corresponds to a GPIO port. Bit 0 corresponds to GPIO0. Bit 1 corresponds to GPIO1. Bit 2 corresponds to GPIO2, and so on. Setting a bit of ‘val’ as 0 configures the corresponding port as Output. Setting a bit of ‘val’ as 1 configures the corresponding port as Input.
Revision: 1.0 Return Value: If the function gets the values successfully, it returns 0. If any error, it returns –1. 4. Syntax: i32 setChLevel( u8 val ) Description: Set the status bits of GPIO Output ports according to the variable ‘val’. The status bits at the ports which are configured as input will not be affected. Parameters: The parameter ‘val’ is an unsigned character. If a GPIO port is configured as an Output port, a ‘1’ bit at ‘val’ directs the corresponding port to output a ‘1’.
Revision: 1.0 Parameters: The parameter ‘val’ is the value to set to watchdog timer register. The range is 0 ~ 255. Return Value: None. LAN Bypass Subsystem 1. void enableWdt(void) Enable Watchdog Timer. (This timer is different from the System Watchdog timer, which is configured by the API described in 6.2). 2. void disableWdt(void) Disable Watchdog Timer. 3. void reloadWdt(void) Reload Watchdog Timer. 4. void forceNormal(void) Force the port to become normal state. 5.
