            # pytcs

A Python package for reading exported TwinCAT Scope Files.\
Export your TwinCAT Scope files `.svdx` to `.csv` and read them into Python.

## quickstart

Open a file and create a `pandas.DataFrame`:

```python
from pytcs import ScopeFile

sf = ScopeFile("example.csv")  # open file and read metadata
df = sf.as_pandas()  # convert to pandas DataFrame
```

## user guide

### installation

Install using `pip` or `conda/mamba`:

```
pip install pytcs
```

```
conda install pytcs
```

### loading data

To get started, open a file using `pytcs.ScopeFile`:

```python
from pytcs import ScopeFile

sf = ScopeFile("example.csv")
sf
# > <TwinCAT Scope File at 0x2a157ca9310>
# > name:    example
# > runtime: 0:00:00.999000
# > start:   2022-05-02T13:56:24.376000+00:00
# >
# > Channels:
# >   *var_REAL64: 1.0 ms [None]
# >   *var_UINT64: 1.0 ms [None]
# >   *var_UINT32: 1.0 ms [None]
# >   *var_UINT16: 1.0 ms [None]
# >   *func_units_scaled: 1.0 ms [dV]
```

You can see the list of channels contained in the file together with the sample time and the unit.
When creating a `ScopeFile` instance only the metadata about the channels is read from the file header.
The actual channel data is not loaded, indicated by the `*` in front of the channels.

You can load all or only a list of channels by using `ScopeFile.load()`

```python
sf.load()
sf
# > <TwinCAT Scope File at 0x2a157ca9310>
# > name:    example
# > runtime: 0:00:00.999000
# > start:   2022-05-02T13:56:24.376000+00:00
# >
# > Channels:
# >   var_REAL64: 1.0 ms [None]
# >   var_UINT64: 1.0 ms [None]
# >   var_UINT32: 1.0 ms [None]
# >   var_UINT16: 1.0 ms [None]
# >   func_units_scaled: 1.0 ms [dV]
```

### accessing individual channels

Individual channels can be accessed by their name:

```python
sf["func_units_scaled"]
# > ScopeChannel(name='func_units_scaled',
# >   time=array([  0.,   1.,   2., ..., 997., 998., 999.]),
# >   values=array([   10.,     0.,   -10., ..., -9960., -9970., -9980.]),
# >   sample_time=1.0, time_offset=0.0, units='dV')
```

### CSV backends

The default implementation of `pytcs` uses `pandas.read_csv` for parsing CSV files.
The `pandas` aims to provide the most flexible support for the various formatting options provided by the TwinCAT Scope export tool.

To improve performance for large files, [datatable](https://github.com/h2oai/datatable) can be set as an alternative CSV backend.
Datatable can be selected by using `ScopeFile.read(..., backend="datatable")` .
However it should be considered **experimental** since some CSV formats can run into known issues and errors.
If you want to use the `datatable` backend it is recommended run detailed tests with the target format (or change the target format).

### exporting to pandas and xarray

To work with the data, convert them to a pandas or xarray object. Channels will automatically be loaded form the file when exporting to other formats.
You can select individual channels to export.

```python
sf.as_pandas(channels=["var_REAL64", "var_UINT16"])
# >                          var_REAL64  var_UINT16
# > time
# > 2022-05-02 13:56:24.376         0.0         0.0
# > 2022-05-02 13:56:24.377         1.0         1.0
# > 2022-05-02 13:56:24.378         2.0         2.0
# > 2022-05-02 13:56:24.379         3.0         3.0
# > 2022-05-02 13:56:24.380         4.0         4.0
# > ...                             ...         ...
# > 2022-05-02 13:56:25.371       995.0       995.0
# > 2022-05-02 13:56:25.372       996.0       996.0
# > 2022-05-02 13:56:25.373       997.0       997.0
# > 2022-05-02 13:56:25.374       998.0       998.0
# > 2022-05-02 13:56:25.375       999.0       999.0
# >
# > [1000 rows x 2 columns]
```

Exporting to an `xarray.Dataset` will preserve the metadata as attributes.

```python
sf.as_xarray(channels=["var_REAL64", "var_UINT16"])
# > <xarray.Dataset>
# > Dimensions:     (time: 1000)
# > Coordinates:
# >   * time        (time) datetime64[ns] 2022-05-02T13:56:24.376000 ... 2022-05-...
# > Data variables:
# >     var_REAL64  (time) float64 0.0 1.0 2.0 3.0 4.0 ... 996.0 997.0 998.0 999.0
# >     var_UINT16  (time) float64 0.0 1.0 2.0 3.0 4.0 ... 996.0 997.0 998.0 999.0
# > Attributes:
# >     ScopeName:   tc3_scope_3_4_3145_3
# >     File:        C:\Python\weldx-dev\pytcs\tests\data\tc3_scope_3_4_3145_3-Co...
# >     StartTime:   132959733843760000
# >     EndTime:     132959733853750000
# >     start_time:  2022-05-02T13:56:24.376000+00:00
# >     run_time:    0:00:00.999000
```

### dtype support

By default, all data will be read as `np.float64`.
When importing data with `ScopeFile.load` using the option `native_dtypes=True`,  imported data will be converted to their native dtypes.

| TwinCAT Scope | numpy        | IEC61131-3 |
| ------------- | ------------ | ---------- |
| BIT           | `np.bool_`   | BOOL       |

| INT16         | `np.int16`   | INT        |
| INT32         | `np.int32`   | DINT       |
| INT64         | `np.int64`   | LINT       |
| UINT8         | `np.uint8`   | USINT      |
| UINT16        | `np.uint16`  | UINT       |
| UINT32        | `np.uint32`  | UDINT      |
| UINT64        | `np.uint64`  | ULINT      |
| REAL32        | `np.float32` | REAL       |
