Indicator light

Description

The Indicator light is an user interface unit allowing your Programmable Robot (or other devices supporting the GetInfo and SetInfo interfaces) to display an information using a colored light output voxel. The Indicator light can be assembled to form voxel display walls.

How to make it

Use the following manufacturing instructions to make the item. If you do not know how to use them, follow how to understand manufacturing instructions

1 x Indicator light

How to use it

The Indicator light can be used with the Voxel_GetInfo(), Voxel_SetInfo() and Voxel_GetInfoDoc() functions of the Programmable Robot. Read the Programming Manual for more informations.

Here is the GetInfo/Setinfo interface Index functionnalities :

Index	Property	Read/Write	Read Type	Write Type
0	Max Number for index	R	[integer]
1	Indicator light State	R/W	[integer]	[bool][Integer]

Setting the Indicator light state with the Index 1 will change the displayed color. Depending on the number you set with Voxel_SetInfo(x,y,z,1,Value), the color can be one of the following:

Value	Color
0	White
1	Grey Lvl.7
2	Grey Lvl.6
3	Grey Lvl.5
4	Grey Lvl.4
5	Grey Lvl.3
6	Grey Lvl.2
7	Black
8	Red
9	Green
10	Blue
11	Yellow
12	Pink
13	Cyan
14	Sky Blue
15	Orange

Make a Programmable Robot an put the Indicator light on top of it. Then, try the following program :

// Example #1: Get the state of the voxel at the top of the robot.

function Voxel_Step() 
{
  Voxel_SetInfo(0,1,0,1, GetRnd(16) );
}

How to collect it

You can collect it using any constructor/destructor.

Version Evolution

The Indicator light was introduced in Blackvoxel 1.3 (and preceding beta versions).
