git clone https://github.com/joy-it/JoyPi_Advanced_RaspberryPi.git
cd JoyPi_Advanced_RaspberryPi
sudo python3 setup.py install

Library Guide

ADC

  • adc(bus = 0, device = 0) - initialize ADC with default values
  • open() - starts communication
  • read_value(channel) - returns raw value from a selected channel
  • read_voltage(channel, value=None) - returns measured voltage from a selected channel, raw value can also be calculated into voltage with this method
  • close() - ends communication

Gyroscope

  • gyroscope(bus = 0, device = 2)- initialize gyroscope with default values
  • open() - starts communication
  • close() - ends communication
  • getTemperature() - returns measured temperature
  • getTilt() - returns the tilted direction
  • scale_Factor(scale) - sets scale factor of the gyroscope (0, 8, 16 or 24)

Barometer

  • barometer(i2c: busio.I2C, i2c_address = 0x77, resolution=4096) - initialize barometer with default values
  • get_pressure() - returns the measured pressure
  • get_temperature()- returns the measured temperature
  • get_altitude(reference_pressure = 1013.25) - return the calculated altitude with the measured pressure and your local pressure (reference_pressure)

Button matrix

  • buttonmatrix(i2c: busio.I2C, i2c_address = 0x22)- initialize button matrix with default values
  • getKey() - returns the pressed button
  • clearMemory() - clears class variable calculated
  • calculate() - method to use the button matrix as a calculator

Color sensor

  • colour(i2c_address = 0x10)- initialize colour sensor with default values
  • enableSensor() - start communication
  • disableSensor()- end communication
  • getRGBW() - returns measured RGBW values
  • setIntegrationTime() - set integration time (0-40ms, 1-80ms, 2-160ms, 3-320ms, 4-640ms or 5-1280ms)
  • forceMode() - forces measurement mode
  • autoMode()- automatic measurement mode
  • readAll() - returns RGB colours as well as raw values

LED matrix

  • LEDMatrix( pin = 18, brightness = 100)- initialize LED matrix with default values
  • clean() - clears the LED matrix
  • setPixel(position, colour) - sets specific pixel to a selected colour
  • RGB_on(colour) - sets the complete matrix to one selected colour
  • rainbow(wait_ms=20, iterations=1) - rainbow effect on the whole matrix with default values
  • colourWipe(colour, wait_ms=50) - Move selected colour pixel by pixel onto the matrix with default speed
  • theaterChase( colour, wait_ms=50, iterations=10) - chaser animation with a selected colour with deafult speed
  • show() - displays set pixels
  • demo1() - demo program version 1
  • demo2() - demo program version 2

Servo motor

  • servomotor(pin = 18, position = 0) - initialize servo motor with default values
  • setDirection(set_pos, speed = 5) - moves servomotor to a selected position (set_pos) with default speed
  • setHome() - sets servomotor to start position
  • getPosition() - returns position of servo motor
  • end() - moves servo into start position, stops communication and cleans up communication

Stepper motor

  • stepmotor(pin1 = 22, pin2 = 23, pin3 = 24, pin4 = 4)- initialize step motor with default values
  • turnSteps(steps) - turns a selected amount of steps
  • turnDegrees(deg) - turns a selected amount of degree
  • turnDistance(dist, rad) - rotates by distance value
  • end() - clears up communication
