{
log_printf( &logger, " Red : %urn", color_data );
}
if ( COLOR12_OK == color12_get_color_data( &color12, COLOR12_DATA_GREEN, &color_data ) )
{
log_printf( &logger, " Green : %urn", color_data );
}
if ( COLOR12_OK == color12_get_color_data( &color12, COLOR12_DATA_BLUE, &color_data ) )
{
log_printf( &logger, " Blue : %urn", color_data );
}
if ( COLOR12_OK == color12_get_color_data( &color12, COLOR12_DATA_IR, &color_data ) )
{
log_printf( &logger, " IR : %urn", color_data );
}
log_printf( &logger, " ---------------------- rn" );
Delay_ms( 1000 );
}
The full application code, and ready-to-use projects can be installed directly from NECTO Studio The package Manager (recommended), is downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on the MIKROE Github account.
Other MIKROE Libraries used in the example:
