# bitscope

**bitscope** is a comprehensive library for programming and data collection from [Bitscope Micro](http://bitscope.com/product/BS05/).



It is a python wrapper for **bitlib** package installed using [**bitscope-library_2.0.FE26B**](docs/BitScopeLibraryGuide.pdf) and [**python3-bindings-2.0-DC01L**](src/python3-bindings-2.0-DC01L.zip)

## Usage

```diff
#!/usr/bin/env python

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
- from bitlib import *
+ from bitscope import *

# initialisation of scope collects all the device data and stores them in
# scope.devices list
- BL_Open('USB:/dev/ttyUSB1',1)
+ scope = Scope('USB:/dev/ttyUSB1',1)

# collect the list of devices
devices = scope.devices

#Setup acquisition in FAST mode, where the whole of the 12288 samples in
#the buffer are used by one channel alone.
- BL_Select(BL_SELECT_DEVICE,0)
- BL_Mode(BL_MODE_FAST)

+ devices[0].mode(BL_MODE_FAST)

#Setup channel-nonspecific parameters for capture.
#How many seconds to capture before the trigger event- 0 by default
- BL_Intro(BL_ZERO)
#How many seconds to capture after the trigger event- 0 by default
- BL_Delay(BL_ZERO)
# optional, default BL_MAX_RATE
- BL_Rate(MY_RATE)
# optional default BL_MAX_SIZE
- BL_Size(MY_SIZE)

+ scope.tracer.configure(
+ rate=BL_MAX_RATE,
+ size=BL_MAX_SIZE,
+ pre_capture=BL_ZERO,
+ post_capture=BL_ZERO
+ )

#Set up channel A properties - A has channel index 0, B has 1.
#All the subsequent properties belong to channel A until another is selected.
- BL_Select(BL_SELECT_CHANNEL,0);
# use the POD input - the only one available
- BL_Select(BL_SELECT_SOURCE,BL_SOURCE_POD);
# Y-axis offset is set to zero as BL_ZERO
- BL_Offset(BL_ZERO)
# maximum range for y-axis - use this whenever possible
- BL_Range(BL_Count(BL_COUNT_RANGE))

+ devices[0].channels[0].configure(
+ source=BL_SOURCE_POD,
+ offset=BL_ZERO,
+ range=BL_Count(BL_COUNT_RANGE)
+)

#Enable the currently selected channel, i.e. channel A
#This ensures the recorded data goes into the memory-buffer in Bitscope device
- BL_Enable(TRUE);
+ devices[0].channels[0].enable()

- BL_Trace(0.01,BL_SYNCHRONOUS)
+ scope.tracer.trace(0.01,BL_SYNCHRONOUS)

- Data = BL_Acquire()
+ Data = devices[0].channels[0].acquire()
print Data
```
