- | - **Port Selector**: use this to select the sensor port 1 through 4 that Pixy2 is plugged into on your controller brick. | + | |
- | - **Mode Selector**: selects between measure and compare modes. | + | ==== Parameters ==== |
- | - **Turn Angle**: sets the turn angle (in degrees) for when intersections are encountered. Turn angle values can range between -180 and 180. See the section on turn angles below. | + | |
- | - **Reverse**: setting this to false to true or true to false will cause Pixy2 to reverse the current Vector. | + | 1. **Port Selector**: use this to select the sensor port 1 through 4 that Pixy2 is plugged into on your controller brick. |
- | - **Lamp**: turns the lamp on or off. | + | 2. **Mode Selector**: selects between measure and compare modes. |
- | - **Vector**: outputs the X coordinate of the head of the Vector. The value ranges between 0 (far left of the image) to 128 (far right of the image). If no Vector is detected, the value will be -1. | + | 3. **Turn Angle**: sets the turn angle (in degrees) for when intersections are encountered. Turn angle values can range between -180 and 180. See the section on turn angles below. |
- | - **Vector Reversed**: outputs true if the Vector is pointing down instead of up. This usually indicates that your robot needs to reverse its direction in order to follow the Vector. | + | 4. **Reverse**: setting this to false to true or true to false will cause Pixy2 to reverse the current Vector. |
- | - **Barcode**: outputs the numerical value of a detected barcode (0 through 15). If no barcodes are detected, the value will be -1. If more than one barcode is detected in the image, the value of the barcode closest to the bottom of the image will be returned. | + | 5. **Lamp**: turns the lamp on or off. |
- | - **Intersection**: outputs the number branches in a detected intersection (3 through 6) -- note, a "T" intersection is the minimum number of branches an intersection can have (3). If no intersection is detected, the value will be -1. | + | 6. **Vector**: outputs the X coordinate of the head of the Vector. The value ranges between 0 (far left of the image) to 128 (far right of |
+ | the image). If no Vector is detected, the value will be -1. Refer [[wiki:v2:line_tracking#detecting-and-tracking-lines|here]] for a description of the Vector. | ||

+ | 8. **Barcode**: outputs the numerical value of a detected barcode (0 through 15). If no barcodes are detected, the value will be -1. If more than one barcode is detected in the image, the value of the barcode closest to the bottom of the image will be returned. Refer [[wiki:v2:line_tracking#barcodes|here]] for examples of barcodes, and [[https://pixycam.com/downloads-pixy2/|here]] to download barcode images. | ||
+ | 9. **Intersection**: outputs the number branches in a detected intersection (3 through 6) -- note, a "T" intersection is the minimum number of branches an intersection can have (3). If no intersection is detected, the value will be -1. Refer [[wiki:v2:line_tracking#detecting-intersections-and-branching|here]] for examples of barcodes. | ||

- | - **Red**: outputs the red value of the pixel at the specified image location. Value can range between 0 to 255. | + | 6. **Saturation**: if true, Pixy will "saturate" the colors so they are easier to distinguish (reds are redder, blues are bluer, etc.) If false, the raw RGB values will returned. |
