Welcome to the ScopePy wiki!

ScopePy was originally designed as a plotting program to be used as a front end to a home made oscilloscope. Unfortunately the oscilloscope still needs to be made, but the program has grown quite a bit beyond its original intent.

The original idea is that the oscilloscope hardware would send sweep data over the network to the ScopePy program. This data would then appear in "Channels" on the program screen. The user would then be able to select these channels and plot them out. This functionality still exists in the program, although it's not really documented at the moment.

This channel based approach is where ScopePy's interface comes from. Now as well as channel data being sent over the network, the data can also come from data files or even be generated programmatically from ScopePy's built in Python console.
