<p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 577596 by <a href="/recipes/users/4177147/">Barry Walker</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/amiga/">amiga</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/analogue/">analogue</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/anim/">anim</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/audio/">audio</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/demo/">demo</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/digital/">digital</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/display/">display</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/e_uae/">e_uae</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/linux/">linux</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/voltmeter/">voltmeter</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/windows/">windows</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/winuae/">winuae</a>). </p> <p>I needed a simple standard Python analogue and digital display along with an overload beep when used as a basic voltmeter.</p> <p>Analogue readout, for quick glance. Digital readout, for better accuracy. Beep, to warn me of impending doom... ;o)</p> <p>This was my starter code and works from Python 1.4.x to 2.7.x on MINIMUM platforms, AMIGA A1200, MS Windows ME and Knoppix 5.1.1. It is a stand alone program and the easiest way to start it is to import it as though it is a module.</p> <p>(I DO have a Python 3.x.x version too and WILL be uploaded here in the future.)</p> <p>Although this is a DEMO it did access, (home built), HW from various ports on differing platforms.</p> <p>This module IS needed for it to work:-</p> <p><a href="http://code.activestate.com/recipes/577588-clear-screen-and-beep-for-various-platforms/?in=lang-python" rel="nofollow">http://code.activestate.com/recipes/577588-clear-screen-and-beep-for-various-platforms/?in=lang-python</a></p> <p>These simple HW access modes using standard Python code WILL be released in the future.</p> <p>This DEMO is released as Public Domain and you may modify it as you please...</p> <p>Enjoy finding simple solutions to often very difficult problems...</p> <p>73...</p> <p>Bazza, G0LCU...</p> <p>Team AMIGA...</p>
