Library Description

This library provides generic functions for working with the Click board.

Key functions:

• uint8_t proximity6_writeReg( uint8_t register_address, uint16_t transfer_data ) - The function writes 16-bit data to the register.
• uint8_t proximity6_setMode( uint8_t selectMode ) - The function puts the device in the desired operating mode.
• void proximity6_getPosition( uint8_t *position ) - The function reads proximity data and checks from which side the object (body) effects on the sensor.
• uint8_t proximity6_displayData( uint8_t *dataValue, uint8_t setResolution ) - The function shows proximity data values in determined resolution as graphics view.

Examples Description

The application is composed of three sections:

• System Initialization - Initializes peripherals and pins.
• Application Initialization -  Sets the registers in a default state and configures the device to work in proper operating mode (Proximity Mode).
• Application Task - (code snippet) - Example can show the data register values as graphic view in desired resolution. Also can determine from which side the object (body) effects on the sensor and logs results on USB UART. Results will be shown only when one or more data registers are updated with the new value (sensor detects the change).

void applicationTask()
{
 proximity6_logPositionRes();
}

Additional functions:

• void proximity6_logGraphicRes() - The function logs on USB UART results from the data proximity registers as graphic view.
• void proximity6_logPositionRes() - The function logs on USB UART the position of the object which affects the sensor.

Other mikroE Libraries used in the example:

• I2C
• UART

Additional notes and information

Depending on the development board you are using, you may need USB UART click,  USB UART 2 click or RS232 click to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board. The terminal available in all MikroElektronika compilers, or any other terminal application of your choice, can be used to read the message.
