endaq.ide Usage Examples

Note: For brevity, the following examples assume everything has been imported from endaq.ide:

from endaq.ide import *

Opening IDE files: endaq.ide.get_doc()

endaq.ide includes a convenient shortcut for importing IDE data: get_doc(). It can load data from local files, or read data directly from a URL.

doc = get_doc("tests/test.ide")
doc1 = get_doc("https://info.endaq.com/hubfs/data/surgical-instrument.ide")

IDE files can be retrieved directly from Google Drive using a Drive ‘sharable link’ URL. The file must be set to allow access to “Anyone with the link.”

doc2 = get_doc("https://drive.google.com/file/d/1t3JqbZGhuZbIK9agH24YZIdVE26-NOF5/view?usp=sharing")

Whether opening a local file or a URL, get_doc() can be used to import only a specific interval by way of its start and end parameters:

doc3 = get_doc("tests/test.ide", start="5s", end="10s")

Summarizing IDE files: endaq.ide.get_channel_table()

Once an IDE file has been loaded, get_channel_table() will retrieve basic summary information about its contents.

The results can be filtered by measurement type:

7 59.1 Control Pad Temperature Temperature °C 00:00.0979 00:18.0910 00:17.0931 180 10.04 Hz

Information about a specific interval can be retrieved by using the start and/or end arguments. Note that due to different sampling rates, the start and end times for slower channels may not precisely match the specified start or end.

Extracting intervals: endaq.ide.extract_time()

A portion of an IDE file can be saved to another, new IDE. The source can be a local filename or an opened IDE (from a file or URL).

extract_time("tests/test.ide", "doc_extracted.ide", start="0:05", end="0:10")
extract_time(doc1, "doc1_extracted.ide", start="0:05", end="0:10")
