Control Pi-Cubes DO4 Module

var pic = require('node-picubes');
 
pic.writeDO(1,1,1,function(err){
                if (err) console.log(err);
   	          });
              
pic.writeDOSync(1,1,1);			  
              

picubes.writeDO(module, output, value, callback) - Async version

picubes.writeDOSync(module, output, value ) - Sync version

• module - Module address(1 - 6)
• output - Output number(1 - 4)
• value - Digital output value :
  • 0 = Off
  • 1 = On
• callback - The callback gets one argument (err).

Control Pi-Cubes UO4 Module

var pic = require('node-picubes');
 
pic.writeUO(1,1,0,1,function(err){
                  if (err) console.log(err);
   	             });
pic.writeUOSync(1,1,0,1);					 
                 

picubes.writeUO(module, output, type, value, callback) - Async version

picubes.writeUOSync(module, output, type, value) - Sync version

• module - Module address(1 - 6)
• output - Output number(1 - 4)
• type - Universal output type :
  • 0 = Digital Output(0 / 12VDC)
  • 1 = Modulation(0 - 10VDC)
  • 2 - 255 = Digital otput PWM with this period in sec.
• value - Universal output value :
  • 0 / 1 = For digital type
  • 0 - 100 % = for Modulation / PWM
• callback - The callback gets one argument (err).

Read Pi-Cubes UI4 Module

var pic = require('node-picubes');
 
pic.readUI(3,1,1,function(err,data)
                 {
                    if (err) console.log(err);
                    console.log('Data:'+data);
   	             }
          );
          
data = pic.readUISync(3,1,1);
if (data != null) console.log('Data:'+data);		  

picubes.readUI(module, input, type, callback) - Async version

picubes.readUISync(module, input, type) - Sync version

• module - Module address(1 - 6)
• output - Output number(1 - 4)
• type - Input type 0 = Resistance(Return value 0 - 350000)
  • 1 = Digital(Return value 0 - 1)
  • 2 = Voltage / Current(Return value 0 - 100 % , represent 0 - 10V / 0 - 20mA)
  • 3 = 10K Type II Thermistor(Return value - 4000 to 14000, scale 0.01)
  • 4 = Pulse Input(Return value is counter value)
• callback - The callback gets two argument (err,data).

Read Pi-Cubes CTA Module

var pic = require('node-picubes');
 
pic.readCTA(1,0,function (err,data)
                   {
                      if (err) console.log(err);
                      console.log('Data:', data);
                   }
                   );
          
data = pic.readCTASync(1,0);
if (data != null) console.log('Data:'+data);		  

picubes.readCTA(slave, addr, callback) - Async version
