PyOscilloskop
=============
This python library/application allows to control Rigol DS1000 / DS2000 series
oscilloscopes as well as the function generator DG1022.
It uses [universal_usbtmc][] for the communication with the device.
This allows to use different backends to connect to your device:
* RS232
* USBTMC:
* Linux Kernel Driver
* [python-usbtmc][]
* TCP Socket (via [rpi-usbtmc-gateway][])
Installation
------------
First, install *universal_usbtmc*
pip install https://github.com/pklaus/universal_usbtmc/archive/master.zip
Then install *PyOscilloskop*
pip install https://github.com/pklaus/PyOscilloskop/archive/master.zip
Depending on the backend you want to use, you may have to install additional software.
Read the [universal_usbtmc README file](https://github.com/pklaus/universal_usbtmc/blob/master/README.md) for more information.
Usage
-----
You can either import the modules found in this Python package
in your own scripts to automate control / measurements.
Or use the tools that ship with this software:
* `pyoscilloskop-cli` - A CLI tool for the scopes
Captures the current waveforms and displays them
with Matplotlib and/or saves them to an image file.
* `pyoscilloskop-web` - A web GUI for the scopes
Starts a web server allowing to display waveforms
in the browser.
Examples of how to use the different backends with the tools:
To run the CLI tool with the *linux_kernel* backend, run:
rigolCli.py --backend linux_kernel /dev/usbtmc0
To start the web server with the *tcp_socket* backend, connecting to the host 192.168.0.21, run:
pyoscilloskop-web --backend tcp_socket 192.168.0.21
To run the CLI tool with the *python_usbtmc* backend and enable debug mode, run:
rigolCli.py --backend python_usbtmc "USB::0x1ab1::0x0588::INSTR" --debug
To start the web server with the *pyserial* backend, using the serial device `/dev/ttyUSB0`
(don't forget to set your scope to 38400 baud!):
pyoscilloskop-web --backend pyserial ASRL::/dev/ttyUSB0,38400::INSTR
