mchplnet

  • mchplnet is the Python implementation of the LNet protocol.
  • It implements multiple LNet services to communicate to embedded systems/microcontrollers.
  • Currently only pyserial interface is supported.
  • It is recommended to use the pyx2cscope package, which offers a higher-level interface.

Getting Started

  1. Navigate to the Examples directory in the mchplnet project to explore the available examples or create a new .py file based on your requirements.
  2. Import the necessary classes:
from mchplnet.interfaces.factory import InterfaceFactory
from mchplnet.interfaces.factory import InterfaceType as IType
from mchplnet.lnet import LNet
  1. Create an interface according to your requirements and initialize the LNet with the interface:
interface = InterfaceFactory.get_interface(IType.SERIAL, port="COM8", baudrate=115200)
l_net = mchplnet.LNet(interface))
  1. Use the appropriate functions, such as get_ram, to interact with variables by specifying their address and size:
var_address = 0x00000000
var_size = 4 
var_value = l_net.get_ram(var_address, var_size) 
logging.debug(var_value)
  1. To modify the value of a variable, use the put_ram function:
var_newValue = 500
l_net.put_ram(var_address, var_size, var_newValue)
