pxt-bleadv-m0uld-k1ng-6-0

A Microsoft Makecode extension for micro:bit (V2) only to control Bluetooth M0uld K1ng Module 6.0.

Use as Extension

This repository can be added as an extension in MakeCode.

• open https://makecode.microbit.org/
• click on New Project
• click on Extensions under the gearwheel menu
• search for https://github.com/j0ek3r/pxt-bleadv-m0uld-k1ng-6-0 and import

Basic usage

On start first init your M0uld K1ng Module 6.0. This starts Bluetooth Advertising (sending data one-way) the needed connect telegrams to switch the M0uld K1ng Module in Bluetooth mode.

MK6.init(MK6.Module.M1)

Then - i.E. on pressed button - set a channel’s value in percent and advertise data:

input.onButtonPressed(Button.A, function () {
    MK6.setChannelAndSend(MK6.Module.M1, MK6.Channel.A, 100)
})

Or with consistent changes for multiple channels - first set then send

input.onButtonPressed(Button.A, function () {
    MK6.setChannelAndSend(MK6.Module.M1, MK6.Channel.A, 50)
    MK6.setChannelAndSend(MK6.Module.M1, MK6.Channel.B, 75)
    MK6.sendData(MK6.Module.M1)
})

Advanced usage - finetuning

Set channel’s offset value

This function’s parameter offset_pct is added to a channel’s (non-zero) set value. I.E. if you’ve plugged-in a motor and the motor needs a certain voltage to start turning use this.

MK6.setChannelOffset(MK6.Module.M1, MK6.Channel.A, 25)

Limit channel’s maximum value

This function’s parameter maximum_pct limits the channel’s output to a maximum - i.E. 50 %

MK6.setChannelMax(MK6.Module.M1, MK6.Channel.A, 50)

Set channel’s direction

If this function’s boolean parameter reverse is set then a channel’s output is inverted.

MK6.setChannelReverse(MK6.Module.M1, MK6.Channel.A, true)

Set channel’s zero-hysteresis

All channel’s set values lower than this hystersis value are interpreted as zero (stop)

MK6.setZeroHysteresis(MK6.Module.M1, 1)
