Public Methods

Method	Description
Brick ( ) : System	Initialize the brick, create the structure and setup the serial port
Brick ( SerialDevice myserial ) : System	Initialize the brick, create the structure and setup the serial port
Brick ( SerialDevice myserial, bool autostart ) : System	Initialize the birck, create the structure and setup the serial port
GetBrickVersion ( ) : int	Don't use in normal code, this will errase the sensor type use only for debug purpose
SetTimeout ( int timeout ) : void	Set brick timeout for motor to stop
SetupSensors ( ) : Task	Setup sensors. Don't use this function if the brick is started, only when not started
Start ( ) : void	Start reading the brick, getting info from sensors, moving motors
Stop ( ) : void	Stop the brick, stop all reading, writing, motor movement
UpdateValues ( ) : void	Update values. Don't use this function if the brick is started, only when not started

Private Methods

Method	Description
BrickPiChangeAddress ( byte OldAddr, byte NewAddr ) : Task	Used to change the address of the Ardunio WARNING: don't use it except if you really know what you are doing
BrickPiRx ( int timeout, int cancelAfter = CancelAfter ) : Task	Read data coming from the BrickPi
BrickPiSetTimeout ( ) : Task	Set a new timeout on the brick
BrickPiSetupSensors ( int idxArduino ) : Task	update the type of sensors. Needed to be able to change mode don't call directly this function, it will brak the running thread. Call it only thru the SetupSensros function.
BrickPiTx ( int dest, int byteCount, byte OutArray ) : void	Send data to the BrickPi
BrickPiUpdateValues ( ) : Task	Main function running in the main thread, checking all the time the status of sensors
CheckRetMessage ( byte InArray, byte msg, byte &OutArray, int OutArrayLength = 256 ) : bool	Check if the returned buffer is all correct
CloseDevice ( ) : void	CloseDevice: - Disposes SerialDevice object - Clears the enumerated device Id list
ContinuousUpdate ( IAsyncAction action ) : void	The main thread running all the time to check the sensor status
ReadAsync ( int timeout, CancellationToken cancellationToken ) : Task	ReadAsync: Task that waits on data and reads asynchronously from the serial device InputStream
SelectAndInitSerial ( SerialDevice myserial ) : Task	Initialize the Serial port, the BrickPi
SerialPort_ErrorReceived ( SerialDevice sender, ErrorReceivedEventArgs args ) : void	Used for debug only is any issue happen to the Serial port
UpdateButtons ( ) : void
sum ( int idxStart, int byteCount, byte arrayToCount ) : long	checksum calculator
