void digInAlert(int channel, int value, int
lowpowermode, int maxpowermode, int powersource,
unsigned long timeout)
Use this function to poll a selected digital input until a timeout occurs. The function call forces the
LP3500 to enter the low-power mode using the battery for polling. Upon activation of the channel or
expiration of the timeout, this function will enable the normal power mode and exit.
Use devPowerSet(ALLDEVICES, int state) before and after this function call to deactivate
and activate all devices to operate at less power.
PARAMETERS
channel is the digital input channel (IN00– IN15) to poll
value is the input value of 0 or 1 to receive
lowpowermode is the low-power mode setting to enter, usually 10 (see powerMode())
maxpowermode is the maximum operating power mode setting to enter, usually 1 (see power-
Mode())
powersource
1 = battery
2 = raw DC power
timeout is the timeout in seconds if an input is not received. Enter 0 for no timeout.
