High-level scripts and command-line applications for South Coast Science sensor device manufacturing, test and calibration

Purpose

The scs_mfr (manufacturing) package provides a collection of utilities for the calibration of environmental sensors, together with the configuration of sensor hardware, device identity and networked service authentication. Additionally, tools are provided for subsystem test and registration in manufacture.

Operation

The package is intended for use in a command-line environment. The scs_mfr utilities can be invoked directly via an ssh session, or - if configured to do so - accessed remotely over a control messaging topic.

Structure

The design of the scs_mfr package aims to minimise original functionality - in almost all cases, scripts make use of functions that are built into the scs_core package, on which it depends.

Requirements

South Coast Science supports the deployment of the scs_mfr package on Raspberry Pi 3 and Pi Zero running Raspian, together with BeagleBone hosts running Debian IoT.
