Controller
The Controller module is depicted in Figure 6. The
module is defined in the
kit_controller
files and no other file
fall within this module. The module does perform some of
the most important operations of the system which are as
follows:
•
short launchRUI(QString interfaceType):
Starts
the RUI listening on interfaceType, which can be
UART, TCP, CAN, I
2
C or SPI. Returns 0 if successful.
•
void stopRUI():
Stops the RUI. SensorRF
−
GEVK
stops listening for commands.
•
RUIThread* getRUIThreadPointer():
Returns the
pointer to the RUI Thread. The pointer is used to
connect the thread to the console on the GUI so that it
can display status messages.
•
void turnReaderOn():
Applies power to the AMS
Radon Reader, turning it on.
•
void turnReaderOff():
Removes power from the AMS
Radon Reader, turning it off.
•
double measureTempCodeForCalibration():
Returns
the current Temp Code for the tag currently selected.
Used to calibrate tag.
•
void searchForTempTags():
Performs a search for
Temp tags in the field using the Reader. Results are put
in the Model’s Temp Tags list.
•
void searchForMoistureTags():
Performs a search for
Moisture tags in the field using the Reader. Results are
put in the Model’s Moisture Tags list.
•
void measureTempTags():
Performs a read of the
tags’s On-Chip RSSI codes and Temp codes. Results
are put in the Model’s Temp Tag list.
•
void measureMoistureTags():
Performs a read of the
tags’s On-Chip RSSI codes and Sensor codes. Results
are put in the Model’s Moisture Tag list.
•
int clearTempTags():
Clears the Temp Tags list and
measurement time history along with the Temperature
Demo chart. Returns 0 always.
•
int clearMoistTags():
Clears the Moisture Tags list and
measurement time history along with the Moisture
Demo chart. Returns 0 always.
•
int setMoistLinearFit(bool setting):
Enables the use
of the Linear Fit algorithm to produce measurements
from raw Sensor, On-Chip RSSI, and Temp code reads.
Returns 0 always.
•
int setTempAutoPower(bool setting):
Sets Temp Auto
Power on or off. Returns 0 always.
•
int setMoistAutoPower(bool setting):
Sets Moisture
Auto Power on or off. Returns 0 always.
•
int setTempMaxPowerLevel(int dBm):
Sets Temp
Max Power level. Returns 0 always.
dBm
can be 18–30.
•
int setMoistMaxPowerLevel(int dBm):
Sets Moisture
Max Power level. Returns 0 always.
dBm
can be 18–30.
•
int setTempSamplesPerMeasurement(QString s):
Sets the minimum number of samples used to produce
a measurement for On-Chip RSSI and Temp code.
Returns 0 always.
s
can be 2, 5, 10, 20.
•
int setMoistSamplesPerMeasurement(QString s):
Sets the minimum number of samples used to produce
a measurement for On-Chip RSSI and Moisture code.
Returns 0 always.
s
can be 2, 5, 10, 20.
•
int setTempOnChipRssiTargetMin(int t):
Sets the
minimum value for the On-Chip RSSI code for a Temp
code read to be valid. Returns 0 always.
t
can be between 0 and 31. Min < Max.
•
int setTempOnChipRssiTargetMax(int t):
Sets the
maximum value for the On-Chip RSSI code for a Temp
code read to be valid. Returns 0 always.
t
can be between 0 and 31. Max > Min.
•
int setMoistOnChipRssiTargetMin(int t):
Sets the
minimum value for the On-Chip RSSI code for
a Sensor code read to be valid. Returns 0 always.
t
can be between 0 and 31. Min < Max.
•
int setMoistOnChipRssiTargetMax(int t):
Sets the
maximum value for the On-Chip RSSI code for
a Sensor code read to be valid. Returns 0 always.
t
can be between 0 and 31. Max > Min.
•
int setMoistThreshold(int threshold):
Sets the
threshold value for the Sensor code read to indicate that
the tag is detecting moisture. Returns 0 always.
•
int setMoistAboveThreshold(bool above):
Sets if the
Sensor code read has to go above or below the Moisture
Threshold to indicate that the tag has detected moisture.
Returns 0 always.
•
int setBandRegion(FreqBandEnum band):
Sets the
frequency band and tunes the Reader for that band.
Band can be FCC, ETSI, PRC, JAPAN, FCC_center,
and ETSI_center. Returns 0 if successful.
