Locally constant functions in C-minimal structures

Let $M$ be a $C$-minimal structure and $T$ its canonical tree (which corresponds in an ultrametric space to the set of closed balls with radius different than $\infty$ ordered by inclusion). We present a description of definable locally constant functions $f:M\rightarrow T$ in $C$-minimal structures having a canonical tree with infinitely many branches at each node and densely ordered branches. This provides both a description of definable subsets of $T$ in one variable and analogues of known results in algebraically closed valued fields.
