3. CodeLess Examples

3.1. GPIO Pin References

A port pin is referenced as a two digit decimal number:

• First digit is the port number, second digit is the pin number

• Port 1, pin 3 (P1_3) is thus referenced “13”

• Port 0, pin 2 (P0_2) is referenced “02” or simply “2”

For example, setting P0_3 as an input with pull-up (GPIO type 2):

AT+IOCFG=3,2

Note

P0_5 and P0_6 are used for the UART interface and cannot be assigned to other functions. Only ports P0_0 to P0_3 can be used as analog inputs.

3.2. First Example

You can begin with first example wherein you send AT as a command on the terminal and you receive OK. This verifies that the connection is established.

• AT” gives you the CodeLess version and type description

• AT+BDADDR displays your BD Address as show in Figure 22

Figure 22 Simple Tests

Refer to Section 9 for detailed commands syntax.

Note

Make sure you use CAPS for the commands as they are case-sensitive.

Note

When you enter the AT commands, do not add space at the end of the command.

3.3. Examples - Local Board

3.3.1. Toggle LED

AT commands for DA1458x:

• AT (To verify the connection by getting an “OK” back)

• AT+IOCFG=10,4 (“10” implies Port 1, Pin 0 ; “4” implies IO Functionality where 4 here means IO Output)

• AT+IO=10,1 (AT+IO=10,0 for LED OFF)

• User LED D3 is toggled

Figure 23 Toggle LED

AT commands for DA1453x:

• AT (To verify the connection by getting an “OK” back)

• AT+IOCFG=9,4 (“9” implies Port 0, Pin 9 ; “4” implies IO Functionality where 4 here means IO Output)

• AT+IO=9,1 (AT+IO=9,0 for LED OFF)

• User LED D5 is toggled

Figure 24 Toggle LED

Note

On both basic and pro kits, make sure the J9 jumper is connected.

3.3.2. Read ADC

Note

Here the analog input is connected to 3V supply.

Steps on DA14580 Pro-DK:

1. Connect the P0_2 and VBAT_580 as shown in the figure.

   

   Figure 25 Read ADC Setup

2. When it is connected, send the following AT Commands for DA14585/586:

   • AT

   • AT+IOCFG=2,6 (P0_2, 6 implies analog input)

   • AT+ADC=2 (Reading the value from P0_2)

The ADC value shows 934 (10-bit ADC value) which can be converted to Voltage value by doing the following:

Figure 26 ADC Calculation

You can connect an analog voltage from an external source and do the experiment again. This way you can verify what voltage you are measuring as compared to the input supply.

Note

The ADC value will be around 930 for a 3V voltage on the ADC input. The max voltage that can be measured is 3.6V for 3x attenuation.

3.3.3. Write/Read I2C

We will be using the Adafruit MCP9808 I2C Temperature sensor to read the temperature value. The connections are as shown in Figure 27.

Connections for DA1458x with DA14580 Pro-DK:

• Vdd <-> VBat

• Gnd <-> Gnd

• AT+IOCFG=2,8 (Pin 0_2 , “8” is Hardware AT command for I2C SDA)

• AT+I2CSCAN (This gives you the sensor slave address, seen here as 0x18)

• AT+I2CCFG=7,400,16 (The slave addressing bit count: “7” for 7 bit or “10” for 10 bit; The bit rate: “100” for 100 kbit/s or “400” for 400 kbit/s; The slave register width: “8” for 8 bit or “16” for 16 bit.)

Figure 28 I2C Terminal

We receive a reading of 0xC195 which translates to 25.3°C

Figure 29 I2C Temperature Calculation (Source: MCP9808 Datasheet)

Calculation :

Ta = (upper byte * 16 + lower byte/16)

Ta = (1 * 16 + 149 / 16)

3.3.4. Command Sequencer for DA145xx

Commands can be stored in the command slots and triggered either by a command or by a timer. The following is a blinky example that toggles the board led of basic kit every 1 sec:

• AT+IOCFG=10,4 (Set up pin 10 as GPIO output)

• AT+CMDSTORE=0,AT+IO=10,1;AT+TMRSTART=0,1,100 (Command slot 0:Turn led on and after 1 sec run command slot 1)

• AT+CMDSTORE=1,AT+IO=10,0;AT+TMRSTART=1,0,100 (Command slot 1:Turn led off and after 1 sec run command slot 0)

• AT+CMDPLAY=0 (Trigger command sequence in command slot 0)
