Data stream introspection
Devices have multiple data sources, sampled on specific timebases, which can be selected for streaming.
data.timebase.list
– Number of timebases availbale on device; internal clock, external clock, etc.data.timebase.info
– Request with timebase ID, reply with timebase metadata.data.timebase.send
– Request with timebase ID, sends timebase metadata.data.source.list
– Number of data sources available on device.data.source.info
– Request with data source ID, reply with source metadata.data.source.send
– Request with data source ID, sends soure metadata as source update.data.stream.list
– Number of data streams. Most systems have only one data stream.data.stream.info
– Request with data stream ID, reply with stream metadata.data.stream.send
– Request with data stream ID, sends data stream metadata as stream update.data.stream.columns
– Number of active columns in stream.data.list
– List active streams. Request with ID to enumerate stream names.data.send_all
– Iteratively sends metadata on all timebases, sources, and streams.data.atomic
– Preface a set of atomic data stream changes.data.apply
– Apply data stream changes atomically.data.rate
– Specify primary source data rate (Hz)
Command introspection
rpc.list
– No argument: List number of RPCs. Pass [u16] ID number: returns name of RPC.rpc.info
– [u16] Return RPC metadata, 16 bits.rpc.listinfo
– Same as rpc.list, but prepends rpc.info metadata.rpc.id
– Return 16 bit ID number for named RPC.rpc.name
– [u16] Return RPC name string for 16 bit ID number.
Communications port configuration
dev.port.boot_mode
– [u8] Startup mode of this port 1=text, 0=binary.dev.port.text
– Change mode of this port to text.dev.port.binary
– Change mode of this port to binary.dev.port.count
– [u32] Number of control ports.
