StreamSmart Controllable from RPL? - John R. Graham - 06-06-2014 03:24 PM

Looking at the manual, it doesn't look like it is, but I thought I'd ask.

Nope. Now would you have anywhere near enough speed to handle the data coming in. That was why the module to read, parse and display the data was made as a C binary blob.

Well, sure, but you can imagine an RPL command to the StreamSmart that says in effect, do a collection run on these sensors at this sample rate, and then return the results as a list or matrix object. All the heavy lifting could still be done in the binary code. Seems like a little bit of a missed opportunity.

That said, thanks for the quick answer.

Is the data available as e.g. a list to be further processed within a program?

From the emulator, it is not obvious how things work. The 39gII manual does mention this app, but doesn't explain how it works.

A video demo and some more information would be very nice as 100 EUR for the StreamSmart isn't easily spent without knowing what can be done with it.
