Examples

Sample program using the EBM013 - Touch Pads sensor.

Sensors are first calibrated and then can be read as digital switches

EBM013 Example

Macro reference

GetTouchPressed

	GetTouchPressed
Returns non-zero if touch detected
- BOOL	Switch
Switch 1 = 0, Switch 2 = 1
- UINT	OffValue

- BYTE	Threshold
Provide the threshold value for the pad to be considered touched
- BOOL	Return

GetTouchValue

	GetTouchValue
Samples the touch sensor ADC value and returns it Always samples both channels, but only returns the chosen channel
- BOOL	Switch
Select Switch. Switch 1 = 0, Switch 2 = 1
- UINT	Return
