2 years ago Hi,
The data is continuously sent out through the serial port. That data can be either sent to our website for plotting in realtime, or written to a file, using the import_data.py script. In your case, you should look at how it is written to a file, and have your script monitor that file for changes to update your plots. The data import_data.py script adds the first two columns in the data that you attached. Everything else, is sent directly from the detector.
Thanks,
Spencer

Hi there, I'm trying to build CosmicWatch-compatability into my own gamma spectroscopy software https://github.com/Open-Gamma-Project/Gamma-MCA to enable live-plotting without the need for an extra python script. (not for gamma spectroscopy of course, but just for some simple histogram plotting like the current website)
Now I don't have access to a muon detector so I can't test it on my own. What does the serial output from the detector look like when it is sent to the current web utility http://www.cosmicwatch.lns.mit.edu/measure? Is it the same when printing to a file like this?

(See this file https://github.com/spenceraxani/CosmicWatch-Desktop-Muon-Detector-v2/blob/master/Recording_Data/ExamplePlots/Sheilding/bkg_nobox_long.txt) I'm planning on using the Web Serial API to interface directly with the detector, take it's serial data and the correct data element (which would be number five here - the ADC channel which is most important) and plot it, thus bypassing the need for a local webserver like tornado. This currently only works in Chrome-based browsers though.
