read all digital inputs on 1012 DIO

Post by DarkLight »

The example code states :"If you are unsure how to use more than one Phidget channel with this event, we recommend going to http://www.phidgets.com/docs/Using_Multiple_Phidgets for information"

alas - the site is empty...
[Update … The link now works]

Does anyone has experience with reading all inputs once?

Re: read all digital inputs on 1012 DIO

Post by DarkLight »

The problem is that I need to read all digital inputs as one, i.e.

When inputs 3 and 7 are at 'HIGH' state, I expect the output to be:

output = ['0', '0', '0', '1', '0', '0', '0', '1', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0']


Currently, I repeat the attach for each channel (attach, wait for event, append the readout to an array, detach).

Code: Select all

import time
import traceback
from Phidget22.Devices.DigitalInput import *
from Phidget22.Phidget import *
from Phidget22.Net import *

DIO = []
crash = ''


def DisplayError(e, self):
    print e.message + ' ' + e.details + ' (' + str(e.code) + ')'


def onAttachHandler(self):
    ph = self
    try:
 
        """
        * Get device information and display it.
        """
        serialNumber = ph.getDeviceSerialNumber()
        channelClass = ph.getChannelClassName()
        channel = ph.getChannel()

        deviceClass = ph.getDeviceClass()
        if (deviceClass != DeviceClass.PHIDCLASS_VINT):
            pass
            #print("\n\t-> Channel Class: " + channelClass + "\n\t-> Serial Number: " + str(serialNumber) +
            #      "\n\t-> Channel " + str(channel) + "\n")
        else:
            hubPort = ph.getHubPort()
            print("\n\t-> Channel Class: " + channelClass + "\n\t-> Serial Number: " + str(serialNumber) +
                  "\n\t-> Hub Port: " + str(hubPort) + "\n\t-> Channel " + str(channel) + "\n")

    except PhidgetException as e:
        print("\nError in Attach Event:")
        DisplayError(e)
        traceback.print_exc()
        return

        print("\nDetach Event:")

Yes, that way of using Phidgets would be cumbersome. We recommend opening all your Phidgets at the start of your program, and leaving them open until the program is done. That way you only need to open them all once.

By leaving all the inputs open at the same time, you will be able to collect data from each of them much faster and more easily.
