dpu

The Data Processing Module (DPU) portion of the eVOLVER code are Python scripts used to interface with the machine. This is where experimental scripts can be written, feedback loops between parameters can be programmed, or calibration files can be updated on eVOLVER.

For more information about the DPU and installation, see the wiki.

Run experimental scripts code for eVOLVER

Mac

python experiment/your_exptdir/eVOLVER.py

Windows

py experiment/your_exptdir/eVOLVER.py

Start graphing tool for eVOLVER. Start in new Terminal.

NOTE: Experiment name must have 'expt' to get properly graphed. We are also moving to the GUI for graphing experiment data in real-time.

Mac

python graphing/src/manage.py runserver

Windows

py graphing/src/manage.py runserver

See plots locally on http://127.0.0.1:8000

Setup before running eVOLVER for the first time

Mac

Install Homebrew

/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"

brew install openssl
brew install sqlite

Install Dependencies

Mac

python setup.py install

Windows

py setup.py install

Run calibration code (after the raw values have been logged on the eVOLVER)

The GUI will run calibrations automatically upon completion of the calibration protocols. However, you can still manually run a calibration if you would like to change calibration settings.

List raw calibration files on eVOLVER

Mac

python calibration/calibrate.py -a <ip_address> -g

For Windows, use py instead of python for all commands.

Calibrate Temperature

python calibration/calibrate.py -a <ip_address> -n <file_name> -t linear -f <name_after_fit> -p temp

List raw OD JSON files logged on evolver

OD135

python calibration/calibrate.py -a <ip_address> -n <file_name> -t sigmoid -f <name_after_fit> -p od_135

OD90 (Check to ensure mode is configured properly)

python calibration/calibrate.py -a <ip_address> -n <file_name> -t sigmoid -f <name_after_fit> -p od_90

3D FIT (Check to ensure mode is configured properly)

python calibration/calibrate.py -a <ip_address> -n <file_name> -t 3d -f <name_after_fit> -p od_90,od_135
