3.When creating a component in Nextion editor, the default loading mode is auto loading. When the loading mode is set as manual loading, it requires to use ref to load. When the component is sheltered by GUI command mapping, or when the component is sheltered by other manual loading components, you can use ref to refresh the component.

If you refresh one of the components,the component will be on the first top,but covers the others.Use this command "ref 0" will be work well.
+
1.If you do not want to see the whole waveform flow progress, rather, you want to view the whole waveform all at once, you can stop refreshing the screen and refresh it when all adopted points being passed through.
 +
 
 +
2.Once stop refreshing the screen, all other commands and responded attribute assign operations will still run normally, but the components on the screen will not auto-refresh, neither will any changes in component attributes be refreshed and displayed on the screen(the changes are valid). When the device receive the command ref_star, those changes will be immediately refreshed and displayed on the screen (on condition that the changes are made from the attributes in green bold font).   
 +
 
 +
3.When stop refreshing the screen, ref command will still be executed. Besides, all GUI drawing instructions such as draw point, draw line will still be executed and any changes will be immediately displayed.

This period takes about 5ms(it will take longer if there are other commands to be executed in the buffer zone before executing data pass through command). Following this period, it will send a data pass through ready data(0XFE+Terminator) to user, then it will start sending pass through data. The data being passed are only hexadecimal numbers. It recovers to command receiving state only after the device has adopted specified data.

1. Numerical variable supports operators: “>, <, ==, !=, >=, <=”
 +
 
 +
2. Character and String variable supports operators: “==, !=”
 +
 
 +
3. Nested “()” operator is not allowed. It does not support comparison operation, such as: if (j0.val + 1> 0).
 +
 
 +
4. Operator “()” must be paired.
 +
 
 +
5. Supports nested “if” and “else if” statement.

Contents

Note:

1. The instruction is end with three bytes "0xff 0xff 0xff"

2. All the instrucitons and parametners are in ASCII

3. All the instrucitons are in lowercase letters

Classification I: Operation Commands of Component and System

page: Refresh page

page pageid

pageid: Page ID or Page Name

  • Example 1:
page 0         //Refresh page 0
  • Example 2:
page main    //Refresh the page main

Remarks:

The device automatically refresh page 0 when power on.


ref: Refresh component

ref cmpID

cmpID: component ID or component name

  • Example
ref t0   //refresh component t0
ref 1    // refresh component 1

Remarks:

1. The default loading mode is automatically load when you create and edit a component in Nextion Editor. If set it as manually load, you should use ref command to load the component. Or when the component is covered by the other components, you can use this command to refresh the covered component.

2. Component auto refresh when attribute changes only valid for those attributes in green bold font. The other attributes not in this format can only be refreshed and displayed by the command of ref.

3.When creating a component in Nextion editor, the default loading mode is auto loading. When the loading mode is set as manual loading, it requires to use ref to load. When the component is sheltered by GUI command mapping, or when the component is sheltered by other manual loading components, you can use ref to refresh the component.



click: Activate component's press/release event

click cmpID, event

cmpID: component ID or component name

event: 0 - release event; 1 - press event

  • Example
click b0, 1   //activate press event of component b0
click 2, 0   //activate release event of component 2

Remark:

1, Use "click" command to activate press/release event of a component without touch the LCD.

ref_stop: Stop refreshing screen

  • Example
ref_stop   // no parameters

Remarks:

1.If you do not want to see the whole waveform flow progress, rather, you want to view the whole waveform all at once, you can stop refreshing the screen and refresh it when all adopted points being passed through.

2.Once stop refreshing the screen, all other commands and responded attribute assign operations will still run normally, but the components on the screen will not auto-refresh, neither will any changes in component attributes be refreshed and displayed on the screen(the changes are valid). When the device receive the command ref_star, those changes will be immediately refreshed and displayed on the screen (on condition that the changes are made from the attributes in green bold font).

3.When stop refreshing the screen, ref command will still be executed. Besides, all GUI drawing instructions such as draw point, draw line will still be executed and any changes will be immediately displayed.


ref_star: Recover refreshing screen

ref_star: recover refreshing screen

  • Example
ref_star   // no parameters

Remarks:

This command should be used after ref_stop command.


get: Get variable/constant value with format

get att

att: variable name

  • Example 1
get t0.txt      //return t0's txt value
  • Example 2
get j0.val    //return J0's val value
  • Example 3
get "123"      //return constant string "123"
  • Example 4
get 123      //return constant value: 123

Remarks:

1. When returned value is a string, the returned data is 0X70+ASCII code+0xff 0xff 0xff.

2. When returned value is numerical, returned data is 0X71+4 byte binary data+0xff 0xff 0xff. The data storage mode is little-endian mode (namely, low-order in front, and high-order at back).

3. The specific returning format of data, please refer to the table: Format of Device Return Data


sendme: send current pageID to UART

  • Example:
sendme  //no parameters

Remarks:

If you want the page auto-send pageID every refresh, simply enter sendme in page initialize event.


cov: variable type conversion

cov att1,att2,lenth

att1: source variable

att2: target variable

lenth: length of the string(0 - automatic length, nonzero - fixed length)

  • Example 1:
cov h0.val,t0.txt,0  //convert the value variable of slider h0 val into decimal string and assign the txt variable of t0, the length is automatic
  • Example 2:
cov t0.txt,j0.val,0  //convert the string variable of t0 txt into value and assign the variable of slider h0 val, the length is automatic

Remarks:

1.lenth always represents the length of the string, when the value converts into string, it is the length of target variable; when the string converts into value, it is the length of source variable.

2. If the target variable and source variable are of the same type, the conversion failed.


touch_j: Touch calibration

touch_j:

  • Example:
touch_j   //Enter touch calibration function, this command does not need parameter

Remarks:

All the devices have been calibrated before packing from the factory, this command is not needed under normal circumstances



substr: Extracts the characters from a string

substr att0,att1,star,lenth

att0: A string from which a substring is to be returned

att1: Returned substring

star: The position where to start the extraction. First character is at index 0

lenth: Specifies the length of the returned string


  • Example:
 substr t0.txt,t1.txt,0,2  

Remarks:

All the devices have been calibrated before packing from the factory, this command is not needed under normal circumstances


vis: Hide/show component

vis obj,state

obj: component name or component ID

  • Example 1:
vis b0,0   //hide component b0
  • Example 2:
vis b0,1   //show component b0
  • Example 3:
vis 1,0   //hide the component whose ID is 1
  • Example 4:
vis 1,1   //show the component whose ID is 1

Remarks:

1.The first parameter 255 means all components in current page, for example: vis 255,0 (hide all components in current page); vis 255,1 (show all components in current page).


tsw: Enable/disable component touch function

tsw cmp,state

cmp: component name or component ID

state:(0=disable or 1=enable)

  • Example 1:
tsw b0,0  //component b0 touch invalid
  • Example 2:
tsw b0,1  //component b0 touch valid
  • Example 3:
tsw 1,0  //component of ID 1 touch invalid
  • Example 4:
tsw 1,1  //component of ID 1 touch valid

Remarks:

1.The first parameter 255 means all components in current page, for example: tsw 255, 0 (all components in current page touch invalid); tsw 255, 1 (all components in current page touch valid).


com_stop: Stop execute instructions from UART

  • Example:
com_stop  //no parameters

Remarks:

This command is used for pausing the execution of serial port commands, but note that the device will continue receiving the commands and store them in the buffer. Until receiving "com_star" commands, the device will execute the rest commands that store in the buffer.

When using this command to pause the execution, please make sure whether the buffer size and the maximum capacity of command queue can store all the commands you need. You will find these two parameter in Nextion Hardware manual.


com_star: Execute instructions from UART

  • Example:
com_star  //no parameters

Remarks:

After receiving this command, the device will execute all the commands that store in buffer and new commands form UART.

When using com_stop and com_start, please make sure whether the buffer size and the maximum capacity of command queue can store all the commands you need. You will find these two parameter in Nextion Hardware manual.


randset: Set random value range

randset minval,maxval

minval: minimum value

maxval: maximum value

  • Example:
ranset 1,100  //set current value randomly generated from 1 to 100

Remarks:

1. You should use randset to set random value generated range beforehand. Without setting randset, the value range will be 0~4294967295 by default. Aftering setting randset, you will get a new random value within the preset range every time you run rand

2. The range set by randset keeps valid unless the device being reboot or reset.


code_c: Clear the buffer

  • Example:
code_c   //no parameters

Remarks: Clear the commands that is stored in the buffer without execution.


print: Get variable variable/constant value without format

print att

att: variable name

  • Example 1:
print t0.txt //returns the txt property value of component t0 in ASCII
  • Example 2:
print j0.val //returns val’s property value of component j0 in 4-byte hexadecimal data
  • Example 3:
print "123" //returns the ASCII of string "123":0x31 0x32 0x33
  • Example 4:
print 123 //returns the 4-byte hexadecimal data of value "123":0x7B 0x00 0x00 0x00

Remarks:

1. When the variable obtained by using print command is string type, the device directly returns string ASCII; if it is numeric type (such as progress val property) , the device will directly return the variable’s 4-byte hexadecimal data, value is stored as little-endian mode (ie low level in the front, high level at the back ).

2. When use print command to obtain data, the device sends only the data content, no start identifier, nor end mark.

3.print command can match up printh command to add a piece of user-defined label in the front so as to tell the microcontroller which component this variable belongs to).

4. print command is very similar to get command, the only difference between them is get command returns data with initial identifier (0x70 or 0x71) and end mark (0xff 0xff 0xff), while print not.


printh: Send hexadecimal string

printh hex hex: the characters' hexadecimal string expression to be sent

  • Example
printh d0 a0 //let device send these two bytes 0xd0 0xa0

Remarks:

1. print and printh commands are executed only in Nextion display, they will not be shown in the software simulator.

2. When using printh command to send data, the device sends specified characters only, no Start character, Space character or End character.

3. There must have one and only Space separated between each set of characters in the parameter, both upper case and lower case are supported in the hexadecimal string expression.


add: Add data to waveform component

add objid, ch, val

objid: Waveform component ID

ch: Waveform component channel number

val: value (maximum 255, minimum 0)

  • Example 1
add 1, 0, 30  //add data 30 to channel 0 of the Waveform component which ID number is 1
  • Example 2
add 1, 1, 50  //add data 50 to channel 1 of the Waveform component which ID number is 1

Remarks:

1.Waveform component only support 8-bit values, 0 minimum, 255 maximum.

2.Each page supports up to four Waveform components, each Waveform component supports up to four channels. It supports continuously pass through data, the component will auto-flow and display the value. It supports to change attributes during passing through data, such as change the background color or foreground color for each channel during the process.


addt: Add data to waveform component in volume

addt objid, ch, qty

objid: waveform component ID

ch: channel number of waveform component

qty: adopted point quantity of the data

  • Example:
addt 1, 0, 100  //waveform component whose ID is 1 enter into data pass through mode, pass through adopted point quantity is 100

Remarks:

1.Waveform component only support 8-bit values, 0 minimum, 255 maximum. Single pass through is 1024 bits maximum.

2.After sending waveform data pass through command, it will take some time to get the device responded and started passing through values. This period takes about 5ms(it will take longer if there are other commands to be executed in the buffer zone before executing data pass through command). Following this period, it will send a data pass through ready data(0XFE+Terminator) to user, then it will start sending pass through data. The data being passed are only hexadecimal numbers. It recovers to command receiving state only after the device has adopted specified data.

3.Waveform will not refresh until specified data has been passed through completely.


cle: Clear data in waveform component

cle objid, ch

objid: waveform component ID (component name or variable is not supported); ch: channel

  • Example:
cle 1, 0   //clear the data of waveform component ID=1, channel=0;
cle 1, 255   //clear all the data of waveform component ID=1 

Remarks: ch=255: all channels

rest: Reset Nextion device

rest

Example:

 rest    //no parameters  

doevents: Force refresh the screen immediately

doevents

Example:

 doevents //no parameters

while(n0.val<1024)
{
n0.val++
doevents    //the screen will keep refreshing during the loop
}

Remark: 1, In a long looping statement, you can use doevents to avoid the screen display like brick. 2, doevents usually work with "while" or "for" statement.

strlen: check length of a string

strlen att0, att1

att0: source string variable att1: return value, length of att0

Example:

 strlen t0.txt, n0.val  //assign length of t0.txt to n0.val

Remark:

1, att0 must be string, att1 must be numeric.


if: if statement

  • Example 1: If to.txt equals to 123456, it will switch to page 1
if(t0.txt==”123456”)
{    
Page 1
}
  • Example 2: Below codes can switch content of txt of button component b0 between start and stop in press event)
if(b0.txt==”start”
{    
  b0.txt==”stop”  
} else
{ 
  b0.txt==”start”  
}
  • Example 3: Below codes can switch content of txt of button component b0 among 1, 2, 3 in press event)
if(b0.txt==”1”
{    
  b0.txt==”2”  
} else if (b0.txt==”2” )
{ 
  b0.txt==”3”  
}else
{ 
  b0.txt==”1”
}

Remarks:

1. Numerical variable supports operators: “>, <, ==, !=, >=, <=”

}  

Remarks: 1, In the process of executing a while loop, the device will not show corresponding touch event, serial command will be received in buffer, but not executed until all the statements in the process has finished execution. Please be cautious when using this command, or it might be easily enter into endless loop. 2, It's recommended to use "doevents" command together. 3, refer to remark of "if" statement

for: for statemet

  • Examples:

//n0.val will auto-add to 100, in this process the screen will
//not refresh the result until all the statements of this process 
//being completely executed.

for(n0.val=0; n0.val<100; n0.val++)
{
}

//n0.val will auto-add to 100, in this process the screen will
// keep refreshing and displaying the result of component n0 .

for(n0.val=0; n0.val<100; n0.val++)
{

repo: read EEPROM - Enhanced Model Only

repo att, add

att: variable/constant

add: storage address in EEPROM

Example:

repo t0.txt,10 // read and assign value to t0.txt, read length is (t0.txt-mal)+1
repo n0.val,10      //read and assign value to n0.val, read length is 4 bytes

Remark:

1, read a string from EEPROM, read length is length of the string+1.

2, read a numeric value from EEPROM, read length is 4 bytes.


wepo: write EEPROM - Enhanced Model Only

wepo att,add

att: variable/constant

add: storage address in EEPROM

Example:

wepo t0.txt,10 // write value of t0.txt to EEPROM, start from address #10. storage size is (t0.txt-mal)+1 bytes

  2 - push pull output mode
  3 - PWM output mode
  4 - open drain output mode

cmp: binding component, available in work state 2

Example:

cfgpio 0, 0, 0    //Configure GPIO0 as pull up input mode, you can read the input status from system variable pio0, 
                       //such as: n0.val = pio0

cfgpio 1, 2, 0   //Configure GPIO1 as push pull output mode, you can control the output level 
                 //by system variable pio1, such as: pio1 = 1

cfgpio 2, 1, b0   //Configure GPIO2 as input binding mode, the binding component is button b0. 
                  //Falling edge of GPIO2 will trigger b0's button press event, rising edge of 
                  //GPIO2 will trigger bo's button release event.

cfgpio 4, 3, 0   //Configure GPIO4 as PWM output mode, you should use system variable pwm4 
                 //to set duty cycle before you use the instruction

Remark:

1, only GPIO4 to GPIO7 support PWM function

2, When configure a GPIO to input binding mode, only components in current page can be bind. It is recommended to put the instruction in the preinitialize event, because binding event wont not be triggered after page refreshing or switching.

thsp=0(invalid)

11 thup Touch in sleep mode will auto-awake switch (power-on default 0) thup=0(Touch will not auto awake switch during sleep mode)

thup=1(Touch will autom awake switch during sleep mode) Remarks: Whether thup be 0 or 1, whenever there is any touch operation in sleep mode, the device will send touch coordinates to the serial port.

12 sendxy Close or open real-time sending touch coordinate function sendxy=0(C1ose) sendxy=1(Open)

Remarks:

1. When this function is open, the device will send touch coordinate through serial port when you touch the screen. 2. Please refer to the table: Format of Device Return Data to learn more about the format of sending the coordinate.

13 delay Delay=100(Pause the device for l00ms)

Remarks: When delay command is executed, the CPU of the device will not execute any commands, but will continue receiving serial port command and store them to buffer.

14 sleep sleep=0 (Exit Sleep)

sleep=l (Enter Sleep)

Remarks:

When the device wake up from sleep mode, the device will auto refresh the current page, and the backlight brightness will recover to the default brightness value. Two commands available for changing the brightness of backlight, dim and dims.

15 bkcmd Data return of successful/failed execute serial command(2 by default) bkcmd=0 (No return)

bkcmd=l (Only return the successful data)

bkcmd=2(Only return the failed data)

bkcmd=3(Always return)

Remarks:

This setting only affects the serial command’s successful execution or fail execution’s data return. In Nextion Editor’s editing interface, when there is a command execution error, it will return error data; when the command being executed successfully, it will not return execution result data.

16 rand random value dim=rand (assign a random value to backlight brightness)

n0.val=rand (assign a random value to variable of n0.val)

Remarks:

1.Before use rand, you should use randset command to set random value generated range. If you do not set it, the default range will be 0~4294967295. Aftering setting randset, you will get a new random value within the preset range every time you run rand.

2. The range set by randset keeps valid unless the device being reboot or reset.
