gtbhdsiggen

A python lib and tool to control Gefen HD Pattern Signal Generator on Linux

From python

>>> from gtbhdsiggen import HDSignalGenerator
>>> siggen = HDSignalGenerator('/dev/ttyUSB0')
>>> siggen.get_timings()
'1280x720p@60'
>>> siggen.get_pattern()
'Color Bar'
>>> siggen.set_timings('1920x1080p@50')
>>> siggen.set_pattern(15)

From shell

Get timings and pattern:

$ ./gtbhdsiggen-ctl --get-timings --get-pattern
Timings: 1920x1080p@50
Pattern: SMPTE Color Bar

Set timings and pattern:

$ ./gtbhdsiggen-ctl --set-timings=1280x720p@60 --set-pattern=14
$ ./gtbhdsiggen-ctl --get-timings --get-pattern
Timings: 1280x720p@60
Pattern: Color Bar
