Scripting the Setup
At this point we want to script the setup of the ChipWhisperer-Capture tool, along with pulling in our special utility which is capable of resetting the AVR microcontroller.
<ol stylesytaxhighlight lang="list-style-type: decimal;python"><li><p>Create a Python file with a structure such as the following:</p><pre>from subprocess import callimport chipwhisperer.capturecommon.ChipWhispererCapture as cwcapi.CWCoreAPI import CWCoreAPI # Import the ChipWhisperer APIfrom chipwhisperer.capturecommon.scopesscripts.ChipWhispererExtra base import UserScriptBaseimport CWPLLDrivertime

<p>This is a basic 'script', which is really just a Python program using the ChipWhisperer library. Save the script to a file &amp; run this, which should open the ChipWhisperer-Capture window as before. Finally, let's once again configure the OpenADC for analog capture. Before doing this, switch to the '''Script Commands''' tab, and note there is already some script information being printed. We will make changes to the system and then observe additional data that gets printed here:</p>
<p>[[File:scriptcommands1.png|image]]</p></li>
<li><p>Follow step 13 from section testingserialbasic, which contains a number of settings for the OpenADC portion. After performing the commands, you will note that additional steps have been printed to the '''Script Commands''' window. For example your output might look something like this:</p>
<pre> ['OpenADC', 'Gain Setting', 'Setting', 45], ['OpenADC', 'Trigger Setup', 'Mode', 'falling edge'], ['OpenADC', 'Clock Setup', 'ADC Clock', 'Source', 'EXTCLK x1 via DCM'], ['CW Extra', 'CW Extra Settings', 'Trigger Pins', 'Front Panel A', False], ['CW Extra', 'CW Extra Settings', 'Trigger Pins', 'Target IO1 (Serial TXD)', True], ['CW Extra', 'CW Extra Settings', 'Clock Source', 'Target IO-IN'], ['OpenADC', 'Clock Setup', 'ADC Clock', 'Reset ADC DCM', None], ['Simple Serial', 'Output Format', u''], ['Simple Serial', 'Go Command', u''], ['Simple Serial', 'Load Key Command', u''],]</pre>
<p>Note the format __changes slightly between releases__, and using the wrong format will cause errors. Thus you should copy the output from your specific application and note the exact list used here.</p></li>
<li><p>Insert these commands into our master script such we don't need to perform any manual configuration. Close the ChipWhisperer-Capture window, and find the following line in your script:</p>
<pre>#Connect to scope
capself.doConDisScope(True)peapi.connect()</pre></li>
<li><p>Copy and paste the list of commands into the script just below that:</p>
<pre>#Connect to scope
capself.doConDisScope(True)peapi.connect()
['OpenADC', 'Gain Setting', 'Setting', 45], ['OpenADC', 'Trigger Setup', 'Mode', 'falling edge'], ['OpenADC', 'Clock Setup', 'ADC Clock', 'Source', 'EXTCLK x1 via DCM'], ['CW Extra', 'CW Extra Settings', 'Trigger Pins', 'Front Panel A', False], ['CW Extra', 'CW Extra Settings', 'Trigger Pins', 'Target IO1 (Serial TXD)', True], ['CW Extra', 'CW Extra Settings', 'Clock Source', 'Target IO-IN'], ['OpenADC', 'Clock Setup', 'ADC Clock', 'Reset ADC DCM', None], ['Simple Serial', 'Output Format', u''], ['Simple Serial', 'Go Command', u''], ['Simple Serial', 'Load Key Command', u''],</pre></li>
<li><p>Convert the list into a Python list variable with a name, which is done by inserting a <code>cmds = [</code> on the line above, a <code>,</code> after each line, and a <code>]</code> after the final line:</p>
<pre>#Connect to scope
capself.doConDisScope(True)peapi.connect()
cmds = [
['OpenADC', 'Gain Setting', 'Setting', 45], ['OpenADC', 'Trigger Setup', 'Mode', 'falling edge'], ['OpenADC', 'Clock Setup', 'ADC Clock', 'Source', 'EXTCLK x1 via DCM'], ['CW Extra', 'CW Extra Settings', 'Trigger Pins', 'Front Panel A', False], ['CW Extra', 'CW Extra Settings', 'Trigger Pins', 'Target IO1 (Serial TXD)', True], ['CW Extra', 'CW Extra Settings', 'Clock Source', 'Target IO-IN'], ['OpenADC', 'Clock Setup', 'ADC Clock', 'Reset ADC DCM', None], ['Simple Serial', 'Output Format', u''], ['Simple Serial', 'Go Command', u''], ['Simple Serial', 'Load Key Command', u''],
]</pre></li>
<li><p>Add a loop to run each command on the system:</p>
<pre>#Connect to scope
capself.doConDisScope(True)peapi.connect()
cmds = [
['OpenADC', 'Gain Setting', 'Setting', 45], ['OpenADC', 'Trigger Setup', 'Mode', 'falling edge'], ['OpenADC', 'Clock Setup', 'ADC Clock', 'Source', 'EXTCLK x1 via DCM'], ['CW Extra', 'CW Extra Settings', 'Trigger Pins', 'Front Panel A', False], ['CW Extra', 'CW Extra Settings', 'Trigger Pins', 'Target IO1 (Serial TXD)', True], ['CW Extra', 'CW Extra Settings', 'Clock Source', 'Target IO-IN'], ['OpenADC', 'Clock Setup', 'ADC Clock', 'Reset ADC DCM', None], ['Simple Serial', 'Output Format', u''], ['Simple Serial', 'Go Command', u''], ['Simple Serial', 'Load Key Command', u''],
]
for cmd in cmds: capself.api.setParameter(cmd)</pre></li>
<li>Run your script again. You should see the system connect to the target, and also configure the OpenADC settings. You can confirm this by hitting the '''Capture 1''' button. You won't yet get very useful information, but it should give you some analog data after the timeout period.</li>
<li><p>Switch to the Python console in the running ChipWhisperer-Capture application. First create a shortcut for the serial port:</p>
