Software
The software has 3 components:
- Firmware
This is the code that is installed in the Propeller chip.
- PC Software (SpiderScope)
This is the code that runs on the computer. We have called it the "SpiderScope". It is written in Python.
- Plugins
The PC Software SpiderScope is written in such a way that additional features can easily be added as "Plugins". These would be self-contained features, that are simply added to the main program.
The full software is posted on Github: https://github.com/pcDataSpider.
The Firmware and the PC Software (SpiderScope) have 2 branches: the "master" branch, and a "test" branch. The "test" branch contains the latest version of the software with higher sampling rate of up to 3000 samples per seconds. The "master" branch contains the first version that is limited to a sampling rate of 200 samples per seconds.
