Elitech rc4 data access tool and library.

Project description

Description

This software is a data collecting tool, written in python for Temperature data logger RC-4.

Elitech RC-4 is a reasonable data logger.

Enables to use RC-4 on Mac, Linux, Windows.

Requirements

Parameter set

set device parameter.

$ elitec-device.py --command set --interval=10 --upper_limit=60.0 --lower_limit=-30.0 \
--station_no=1 --stop_button=y --delay=0 --tone_set=y --alarm=y --temp_unit=C \
--temp_calibration=-1.5 /dev/tty.SLAB_USBtoUART

Example(Python module)

Get device infomation.

import elitech

device = elitech.Device("/dev/tty.SLAB_USBtoUART")
devinfo = device.get_devinfo()
print(devinfo.info)

Get record data

import elitech

device = elitech.Device("/dev/tty.SLAB_USBtoUART")
body = device.get_data()
for elm in body:
    print elm

Update param

device = elitech.Device("/dev/tty.SLAB_USBtoUART")
devinfo = device.get_devinfo()  # get current parameters.

param_put = devinfo.to_param_put()  #convart devinfo to parameter
param_put.rec_interval = datetime.time(0, 0, 10)    # update parameter
param_put.stop_button = elitech.StopButton.ENABLE   # update parameter

param_put_res = device.update(param_put)    # update device
