AbstractMessagePacketFormat
Every message packet consists of a three byte header followed by an optional variable length data
block. The maximum packet size is 64 bytes.
Destination device (uint8)
Device addresses are represented as an 8 bit unsigned integer. Individual devices are
numbered 0 through 254 with the value 255 reserved to indicate a broadcast message
to all devices.
Command length (uint8)
The command length is an 8 bit unsigned integer which specifies the length of the
included command data. The length does NOT include the length of the header or any
trailing padding bytes.
Command id (uint8)
The command id is an 8 bit unsigned integer which indicates themessage type being
sent. Receiving devices should ignore any commands that they do not understand.
Commands 0 through 127 are reserved for commands that apply to multiple types of
devices. Commands 128 through 255 are device specific.
Reserved (uint8) This byte is reserved for alignment and expansion purposes. It should be set tozero.
Command data (uint8[])
The command data may contain between 0 and 60 bytes of data. The format of the data
section is defined by the command itself.
Padding (uint8[])
Messages must be padded up to a 32 bit boundary with 0x0bytes. Anypadding bytes
are NOT included in the command length.
Receiving devices should use the destination device address and or the command identifier to
determine which messages to process. The receiver should use the command length to skip
irrelevant or unknown commands and should be careful to skip the implicit padding as well.
DefinedCommands
Command 0 : change configuration
Category (uint8)
The category number specifies one of up to 256 configuration categories
available on the device.
Parameter (uint8)
The parameter number specifies one of 256 potential configuration
parameters available on the device. Parameters 0 through 127 are device
specific parameters. Parameters 128 though 255 are reserved for parameters
that apply to multiple types of devices.
Data type (uint8)
The data type specifies the type of the remaining data. Thepacket length is
used to determine the number of elements in the message. Each message
must contain an integral number of data elements.
Currently defined values are:
0: void / boolean
A void value is represented as a boolean array of length zero.
The data field is a 8 bit value with 0 meaning false and all other values
meaning true.
1: signed byte Data elements are signed bytes
2: signed 16bit integer Data elements are signed 16 bit values
3: signed 32bit integer Data elements are signed 32 bit values
4: signed 64bit integer Data elements are signed 64 bit values
5: UTF-8 string Data elements represent a UTF-8 string with no terminating character.
