Running Instructions #22

Closed SteveBz closed 2 years ago

SteveBz commented 2 years ago

Hi Apostolos,

Hope you are well. My feedhorn is pretty much there, the RTL.SDR is installed and polling. I just need to mount the stand, the dish and the feedhorne, connect the LNA and the RTL.SDR and install the software (yours). I say 'just' I'm sure there will be a lot of problem-solving.

Are there some installation or running instructions for your code? Do I just download them into a directory and type python3 xxxxxxxxx.py or something?

Please could you update the readme with how to do it?

Tx

Kind regards

Steve.

@SteveBz Hi Steve,

I'd suggestion checking out Virgo - this should help you get started with running the acquisition/analysis software on your own machine: https://github.com/0xCoto/Virgo Documentation: https://virgo.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

PICTOR is based on Virgo, with a few extra functions for communicating data to the user over an online platform etc.
