Signals
Overview
The Signals section of the cee API provides functions for driving, measuring, and managing electrical signal pins (voltage, current, resistance, frequency, and phase) in CC: Computer Energetics.
Calling Conventions / Prefixes
All methods within the Signals section are accessed through the global cee namespace:
local volts = cee.getSignalVoltage(1)
cee.setSignalVoltage(1, 50)
API Reference Table
| Method Signature | Arguments & Types | Description |
|---|---|---|
cee.getSignalVoltage(pin) |
pin (number) |
Returns volts on the pin. |
cee.setSignalVoltage(pin, v) |
pin (number), v (number) |
Drive the pin, 0-100V, 20A max. |
cee.getSignalCurrent(pin) |
pin (number) |
Returns amps through the pin. |
cee.setSignalCurrent(pin, a) |
pin (number), a (number) |
Drive it as a current source. |
cee.getSignalResistance(pin) |
pin (number) |
Returns ohms looking out of the pin. |
cee.getSignalRMS(pin) |
pin (number) |
Returns RMS volts over the last second. |
cee.getSignalFrequency(pin) |
pin (number) |
Returns Hz, 0 if not oscillating. |
cee.getSignalPhase(pin) |
pin (number) |
Returns degrees against the sample clock. |
cee.getPhaseAngle(a, b) |
a (number), b (number) |
Returns degrees between two pins. |
cee.isDriving(pin) |
pin (number) |
Returns whether we are driving this pin. |
cee.clearSignal(pin) |
pin (number) |
Stops driving the pin. |
Lua Code Examples
Example 1: Measuring Voltage and Current
local pin = 1
local volts = cee.getSignalVoltage(pin)
local amps = cee.getSignalCurrent(pin)
print("Pin " .. pin .. " -> " .. volts .. "V, " .. amps .. "A")
Example 2: Driving a Signal Pin
local pin = 2
-- Drive pin 2 at 50 volts
cee.setSignalVoltage(pin, 50)
-- Check if we are driving it
if cee.isDriving(pin) then
print("Pin is being driven.")
end
-- Stop driving later
cee.clearSignal(pin)
