.TH pigs 1 2012-2020 Linux "pigpio archive" .SH NAME pigs - command line socket access to the pigpio daemon. /dev/pigpio - command line pipe access to the pigpio daemon. .SH SYNOPSIS .B sudo pigpiod then .B pigs {command}+ or .B "echo {command}+ >/dev/pigpio" .SH DESCRIPTION .ad l .nh .br The socket and pipe interfaces allow control of the Pi's GPIO by passing messages to the running pigpio library. .br The normal way to start the pigpio library would be as a daemon during boot. .br .EX sudo pigpiod .br .EE .br .SS Features .br o hardware timed PWM on any of GPIO 0-31 .br o hardware timed servo pulses on any of GPIO 0-31 .br o reading/writing all of the GPIO in a bank as one operation .br o individually setting GPIO modes, reading and writing .br o notifications when any of GPIO 0-31 change state .br o the construction of output waveforms with microsecond timing .br o I2C, SPI, and serial link wrappers .br o creating and running scripts on the pigpio daemon .br .SS GPIO .br ALL GPIO are identified by their Broadcom number. .br .SS Usage .br pigs is a program and internally uses the socket interface to pigpio whereas /dev/pigpio uses the pipe interface. .br pigs and the pipe interface share the same commands and are invoked in a similar fashion from the command line. .br The pigpio library must be running, either by running a program linked with the library or starting the pigpio daemon (sudo pigpiod). .br pigs {command}+ .br echo "{command}+" >/dev/pigpio .br pigs will show the result of the command on screen. .br The pigs process returns an exit status (which can be displayed with the command echo $?). .br .EX PIGS_OK 0 .br PIGS_CONNECT_ERR 255 .br PIGS_OPTION_ERR 254 .br PIGS_SCRIPT_ERR 253 .br .br .br .EE .br The results of /dev/pigpio commands need to be read from /dev/pigout, e.g. cat /dev/pigout (try cat /dev/pigout& so that all subsequent results are shown on screen). .br In both cases if an error was detected a message will have been written to /dev/pigerr (try cat /dev/pigerr&). This is likely to be more informative than the message returned by pigs or the error code returned by the pipe interface. .br Several commands may be entered on a line. If present PROC and PARSE must be the last command on a line. .br E.g. .br .EX pigs w 22 1 mils 1000 w 22 0 .br .EE .br is equivalent to .br .EX pigs w 22 1 .br pigs mils 1000 .br pigs w 22 0 .br .EE .br and .br .EX echo "m 4 w w 4 0 mils 250 m 4 r r 4" >/dev/pigpio .br .EE .br is equivalent to .br .EX echo "m 4 w" >/dev/pigpio .br echo "w 4 0" >/dev/pigpio .br echo "mils 250" >/dev/pigpio .br echo "m 4 r" >/dev/pigpio .br echo "r 4" >/dev/pigpio .br .EE .br .SS Notes .br The examples from now on will show the pigs interface but the same commands will also work on the pipe interface. .br pigs does not show the status of successful commands unless the command itself returns data. The status (0) will be returned to pigs but will be discarded. .br The status/data of each command sent to the pipe interface should be read from /dev/pigout. .br When a command takes a number as a parameter it may be entered as hex (precede by 0x), octal (precede by 0), or decimal. .br E.g. 23 is 23 decimal, 0x100 is 256 decimal, 070 is 56 decimal. .br Some commands can return a variable number of data bytes. By default this data is displayed as decimal. The pigs -a option can be used to force the display as ASCII and the pigs -x option can be used to force the display as hex. .br E.g. assuming the transmitted serial data is the letters ABCDEONM .br

The bus timing is handled directly by the chip. .br The output process is simple. You simply append data to the FIFO buffer on the chip. This works like a queue, you add data to the queue and the master removes it. .br I can't get SPI to work properly. I tried with a control word of 0x303 and swapped MISO and MOSI. .br The command sets the BSC mode and writes any data \fBbvs\fP to the BSC transmit FIFO. It returns the data count (at least 1 for the status word), the status word, followed by any data bytes read from the BSC receive FIFO. .br Note that the control word sets the BSC mode. The BSC will stay in that mode until a different control word is sent. .br For I2C use a control word of (I2C address << 16) + 0x305. .br E.g. to talk as I2C slave with address 0x13 use 0x130305. .br GPIO used for models other than those based on the BCM2711. .br .EX SDA SCL MOSI SCLK MISO CE I2C 18 19 - - - - SPI - - 18 19 20 21 .EE .br GPIO used for models based on the BCM2711 (e.g. the Pi4B). .br .EX SDA SCL MOSI SCLK MISO CE I2C 10 11 - - - - SPI - - 10 11 9 8 .EE .br When a zero control word is received the used GPIO will be reset to INPUT mode. .br The control word consists of the following bits. .br .EX 22 21 20 19 18 17 16 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 .br a a a a a a a - - IT HC TF IR RE TE BK EC ES PL PH I2 SP EN .br .EE .br Bits 0-13 are copied unchanged to the BSC CR register.
