int	getStatusCode() Six bit status code from the sensor, as a value from 0 to 63.
default boolean	isEngaged() bit 4 looks like 0 for engaged, 1 for released.
default boolean	isPassive() bit 3 looks like 0 for passive, 1 for active sensors.
static SensorValue	newSensorValue(byte high, byte low)

Method Detail

newSensorValue

static SensorValue newSensorValue(byte high,
                                  byte low)

getAnalogValue

int getAnalogValue()

Analog value returned by sensor, in the range of 0 to 1023.

Returns:

value from 0 to 1023, inclusive.

getStatusCode

int getStatusCode()

Six bit status code from the sensor, as a value from 0 to 63.

Returns:

value from 0 to 63, inclusive.

isPassive

default boolean isPassive()

bit 3 looks like 0 for passive, 1 for active sensors.

Returns:

true for passive sensors, false for active sensors

isEngaged

default boolean isEngaged()

bit 4 looks like 0 for engaged, 1 for released. (when four is low, sensor is lit on box)

Returns:

true for engaged sensors, false for released sensors
