    EVShield Library Tutorial


    (for AVR Arduino boards)

    Arduino Programming Environment and Library


    If you have not already, please refer to EVShield User Guide for
    download instructions of Arduino Programming Environment and
    Library, at following url:

    Structure of Arduino Program for EVShield


    In the example program below, a NXT Touch sensor and Light sensor
    is attached to the EVShield. Each time the touch sensor is pressed,
    the active/passive mode of light sensor is toggled.
    The program also takes readings from light sensor continuously.
    You can find this program in the library distribution for EVShield.
    Refer to comments below for explanations of parts of the program.
    #include <Wire.h>
    #include <EVShield.h>
    #include <EVs_NXTTouch.h>
    #include <EVs_NXTLight.h>
    //
    // declare the EVShield(s) attached to your Arduino.
    //
    EVShield evshield;
    //
    // declare analog devices attached to EVShield(s).
    //
    EVs_NXTTouch touch1;
    EVs_NXTLight light1;

    void setup()
    {
    Serial.begin(115200);
    // start serial for output
    delay(500);
    // wait, allowing time to
    // activate the serial monitor
    Serial.println ("Initializing the devices ...");
    //
    // Initialize the protocol for EVShield
    // Use Hardware I2C.

    evshield.waitForButtonPress(BTN_GO);

    // NXT light sensor is not supported on BAS1.
    // connect a NXT light sensor to BAS2,

    //
    touch1.init( &evshield, SH_BAS1 );
    light1.init( &evshield, SH_BAS2 );
    }
    bool lastTouch, touchPressed;
    void loop()
    {
    char
    str[256];
    int lightReading;
    Serial.println("Into loop ------------------------------------");
    touchPressed = touch1.isPressed();
    sprintf (str, "touch1: is pressed : %s", touchPressed?"true":"false");
    Serial.println(str);
    if ( touchPressed != lastTouch ) {
    if ( touchPressed == true ) {
    Serial.println( "Changing light sensor to reflected light mode" );
    light1.setActive();
    } else {
    Serial.println( "Changing light sensor to ambient light mode" );
    light1.setPassive();
    }
    lastTouch = touchPressed;
    }
    lightReading = light1.readRaw();
    sprintf (str, "Light sensor Reading: %d", lightReading);
    Serial.println (str);
    delay (500);

    UART Example of Arduino Program for EVShield


    In this example program, an EV3 Ultrasonic sensor is attached to
    the EVShield. The program reads the sensor information and displays
    it in Serial window.

    #include <Wire.h>
    #include <EVShield.h>
    #include <EVShieldAGS.h>
    #include <EVs_EV3Ultrasonic.h>
    //
    // declare the EVShield(s) attached to your Arduino.
    //
    EVShield
    evshield(0x34,0x36);
    //
    // declare the i2c devices used on EVShield(s).
    //
    EVs_EV3Ultrasonic us1;
    void setup()
    {
    char str[50];
    Serial.begin(115200); // start serial for output
    delay(500); // wait, allowing time to activate the serial monitor
    Serial.println ("--------------------------------------");
    Serial.println ("Starting EV3 Ultrasonic Sensor Test program");
    Serial.println ("--------------------------------------");
    //
    // Initialize the protocol for EVShield
    // Use Hardware I2C.
    //
    evshield.init( SH_HardwareI2C );
    //
    // Wait until user presses GO button to continue the program
    //
    Serial.println ("Press GO button to continue");
    evshield.waitForButtonPress(BTN_GO);
    //
    // Initialize the i2c sensors.
    //
    us1.init( &evshield, SH_BAS2 );
    us1.setMode(MODE_Sonar_CM);
    }

    i2c Example of Arduino Program for EVShield


    In this example program, a NXTCurrentMeter is attached to the
    EVShield. The program reads the sensor information and displays it
    in Serial window.

    #include <EVShield.h>
    #include <EVs_NXTCurrentMeter.h>
    //
    // declare the EVShield(s) attached to your Arduino.
    //
