Brymen IR connection protocol - Anyone sniffed it yet?

--- Quote from: jesuscf on February 22, 2016, 12:06:49 am ---Finally, here is a python script to display the data coming from the BM869s via the Arduino. Once again I had to rename the file from 'stripchart_BM869s.py' to 'stripchart_BM869s.py.c'. So before using it don't forget to rename the file so it has the .py extension! The attached image shows the output of the script.

I am having difficulty opening the GUI. I used the rename function to try to remove the .c file extension. The file does, now, display in the menu list without the .c extension, however the Properties shows that the .c extension is still there.
Anyone know how to clear this up? I am using Windows 8.1.
EDIT: Solved; I needed to go into the Folder Properties settings and enable seeing the full file name.
Still need to know: I am not accustomed to Python scripts... What software do I need, and how do I run, the app?
EDIT: I wasn't sure that I even had Python on my computer, so I installed v3.5... I still don't understand what to do next...
Board Update: The Eagle boards are in production at OSH Park...

Run the script using the Python interpreter. How did you install Python? I'm guessing that you didn't add the python interpreter to the PATH environment variable since the default install doesn't do that. You should however have the "py" Python launcher program though, since that is installed by default.
Open a Windows command prompt, change directory to where the python script is, and then run it with
--- Code: ---py script_filename.py
--- End code ---
Have a look here if you're still stuck: https://docs.python.org/3/using/windows.html
You should also note that jesuscf's python script that he posted makes use of a few other python libraries (numpy, matplotlib, etc). You will also need to install these libraries to python before you can use them. If they're not installed, python will give you an error when it attempts to import them.

Thanks, Jack, but I must admit this is outside of my skill set... Python27 was already installed on my laptop. I have also installed Python35. But neither seem to be added properly. I have gone into the system environmental variables to get the path, but I don't see the path information for either of the Python versions. So, I don't know the path to add to the command line... If it sounds like I might have some understanding, please know that I am faking it...

I found a video with simple instructions and I installed the path for Python27:
Now, I am working on learning how to run the Reflow Oven script, itself...

Gentlemen,
Could you explain me, why you using PIC controller for your project instead of FTDI USB UART IC? I do not have any experience with Brymen, but Is suppose than they also use UART communication interface, because UART present in every microcontrollers. This is just Rx and Tx lines.
