timeflux-upsidedownlabs 0.1.3

Connect to Upside Down Labs devices using Timeflux

This plugin allows you to stream data from Upside Down Labs BioAmp. Two modes are proposed: through the audio interface and through the USB interface.

Installation

First, make sure that Timeflux is installed. You can then install this plugin in the timeflux environment:

$ conda activate timeflux
$ pip install timeflux_upsidedownlabs

Audio interface

Look at this example graph. You can run it like this:

$ conda activate timeflux
$ timeflux -d examples/audio.yaml

The signal can be visualized here.

USB interface

First, you must install the firmware on the board.

Download the Arduino IDE on your computer, and then:

• Start the Arduino IDE

• Select the serial port under “Tools”

• Select your Arduino board under “Tools”

• Upload the standard firmata sketch to your Arduino with:

File -> Examples -> Firmata -> Standard Firmata

You’re all set!

An example graph for the default A0 analog port can be found here. You can run it like this:

$ conda activate timeflux
$ timeflux -d examples/uart.yaml

For an example of querying multiple ports and naming the channels, see this graph.
