LDC 1000 data transmission and reception through python program on computer

Anybody having more sample codes? I got the sample code above running, and I can print proximity data in hex format. I now realize my python skills need some work as I can't get it from hex to decimal, or plot it to a graph. How do I get data out of the code?

Hi Maaik,
hex to dec conversion in python is pretty simple:

www.daniweb.com/.../hexadecimal-to-decimal-python

Thank you. I tried that conversion already, but python kept 'nagging' me and wouldn't do it (rightfully so) -> I now found out why: in the distributed LDC1000 python script here on the forum the value of 'int' is defined in the script. (line 99). That keeps python from running its own int statement. I renamed the line 99 int to intconfig which did the trick. It actually is very simple indeed :)

Further I noticed that in the python script data_msb in line 91 is actually linked to the LDC1000_CMD_FREQCTRMID register instead of LDC1000_CMD_FREQCTRMSB.

thanks.

Hi Maaik,
I'm glad you got the script to work. Thank you for sharing the root cause with us.
