EthercatDevice_Dmp.tryToGetPeripheralPowerVoltage()

[EthercatDevice_Dmp]

Description

Try to get the peripheral voltage in a non-blocking manner. If it returns true, the reading process is complete, and you must immediately call getPeripheralPowerVoltage() to get the value. Otherwise, it indicates that the process is not yet complete.

Syntax

bool tryToGetPeripheralPowerVoltage();

Parameters

None.

Return Value

Return a boolean value indicating whether the non-blocking read process has completed.

• true: Completed.
• false: In progress.

Comment

This function must be called after a successful execution of EthercatMaster::begin(). This function is non-blocking and can be called within the callback functions.

Example Code

#include "Ethercat.h"

EthercatMaster master;
EthercatDevice_QECR11DT0H slave;
double PeripheralVoltage;

void CyclicCallback() {
  if (slave.tryToGetPeripheralPowerVoltage())
    PeripheralVoltage = slave.getPeripheralPowerVoltage();
}

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(115200);

  master.begin();
  slave.attach(0, master);
  master.attachCyclicCallback(CyclicCallback);
  master.start();

}

void loop() {
  Serial.print("Peripheral Voltage: ");
  Serial.println(PeripheralVoltage);
  // ...
}
