Downloading the Phidgets drivers
Make sure that you have the current version of the Phidget library installed on your PC. If you don’t, do the
following:
Go to www.phidgets.com >> Drivers
Download and run Phidget21 Installer (32-bit, or 64-bit, depending on your PC)
You should see the icon on the right hand corner of the Task Bar.
Running Phidgets Sample Program
Double clicking on the icon loads the Phidget Control Panel; we will use this program to make sure that your

The most popular programming languages in Linux are C/C++ and Java.
Notes:
Many Linux systems are now built with unsupported third party drivers. It may be necessary to uninstall these
drivers for our libraries to work properly.
Phidget21 for Linux is a user-space library. Applications typically have to be run as root, or udev/hotplug must be

Programming a Phidget
Phidgets’ philosophy is that you do not have to be an electrical engineer in order to do projects that use devices
like sensors, motors, motor controllers, and interface boards. All you need to know is how to program. We have
developed a complete set of Application Programming Interfaces (API) that are supported for Windows, Mac OS X,
and Linux. When it comes to languages, we support VB6, VB.NET, C#.NET, C, C++, Flash 9, Flex, Java, LabVIEW,
Python, Max/MSP, and Cocoa.
Architecture
We have designed our libraries to give you the maximum amount of freedom. We do not impose our own
programming model on you.
To achieve this goal we have implemented the libraries as a series of layers with the C API at the core surrounded
by other language wrappers.
Libraries
The lowest level library is the C API. The C API can be programmed against on Windows, CE, OS X and Linux. With
the C API, C/C++, you can write cross-platform code. For systems with minimal resources (small computers), the C
API may be the only choice.
The Java API is built into the C API Library. Java, by default is cross-platform - but your particular platform may not
support it (CE).
The .NET API also relies on the C API. Our default .NET API is for .NET 2.0 Framework, but we also have .NET
libraries for .NET 1.1 and .NET Compact Framework (CE).
The COM API relies on the C API. The COM API is programmed against when coding in VB6, VBScript, Excel (VBA),
Delphi and Labview.
The ActionScript 3.0 Library relies on a communication link with a PhidgetWebService (see below). ActionScript 3.0
is used in Flex and Flash 9.
Programming Hints
Every Phidget has a unique serial number - this allows you to sort out which device is which at runtime. Unlike•
USB devices which model themselves as a COM port, you don’t have to worry about where in the USB bus you
plug your Phidget in. If you have more than one Phidget, even of the same type, their serial numbers enable
you to sort them out at runtime.
EachPhidgetyouhavepluggediniscontrolledfromyourapplicationusinganobject/handlespecictothat•
phidget. This link between the Phidget and the software object is created when you call the .OPEN group of
commands. This association will stay, even if the Phidget is disconnected/reattached, until .CLOSE is called.
The Phidget APIs are designed to be used in an event-driven architecture. While it is possible to poll them, we•
don’t recommend it. Please familiarize yourself with event programming.
Networking Phidgets
The PhidgetWebService is an application written by Phidgets Inc. which acts as a network proxy on a computer. The
PhidgetWebService will allow other computers on the network to communicate with the Phidgets connected to that
computer. ALL of our APIs have the capability to communicate with Phidgets on another computer that has the
PhidgetWebService running.
The PhidgetWebService also makes it possible to communicate with other applications that you wrote and that are
connected to the PhidgetWebService, through the PhidgetDictionary object.

Documentation
Programming Manual
The Phidget Programming Manual documents the Phidgets software programming model in a language and device
unspecicway,providingageneraloverviewofthePhidgetsAPIasawhole.Youcanndthemanualatwww.
phidgets.com >> Programming.
Getting Started Guides
We have written Getting Started Guides for most of the languages that we support. If the manual exists for the
languageyouwanttouse,thisistherstmanualyouwanttoread.TheGuidescanbefoundatwww.phidgets.com
>> Programming, and are listed under the appropriate language.
API Guides
We maintain API references for COM (Windows), C (Windows/Mac OSX/Linux), Action Script, .Net and Java. These
references document the API calls that are common to all Phidgets. These API References can be found under www.
phidgets.com >> Programmingandarelistedundertheappropriatelanguage.TolookattheAPIcallsforaspecic
Phidget, check its Product Manual.
Code Samples
We have written sample programs to illustrate how the APIs are used.
Due to the large number of languages and devices we support, we cannot provide examples in every language for
every Phidget. Some of the examples are very minimal, and other examples will have a full-featured GUI allowing
all the functionality of the device to be explored. Most developers start by modifying existing examples until they
have an understanding of the architecture.
Go to www.phidgets.com >> Programming to see if there are code samples written for your device. Find the
language you want to use and click on the magnifying glass besides “Code Sample”. You will get a list of all the
devices for which we wrote code samples in that language.
API for the PhidgetTemperatureSensor 1-Input

Functions
int TemperatureInputCount () [get] : Constant
Returns the number of thermocouples that can be read by this PhidgetTemperatureSensor.
double Temperature (int ProbeIndex) [get] : Celsius
Returns the temperature of a thermocouple. This value is returned in degrees Celsius but can easily be converted
into other units. This value will always be between TemperatureMin and TemperatureMax. Please refer to the device
specicationsfornoiseandaccuracydetails.
double TemperatureMax (int ProbeIndex) [get] : Constant, Celsius
Returns the maximum temperature that can be returned by a thermocouple input. This value depends on the
thermocouple type.
double TemperatureMin (int ProbeIndex) [get] : Constant, Celsius
Returns the minimum temperature that can be returned by a thermocouple input. This value depends on the
thermocouple type.
