Automatic scripts for sam210723/himawari-rx.
There are two verions of systems supported: Windows and Linux.
The scripts for Windows are included in Windows folder, and for Linux are in Linux folder.
himawari-rx__auto.bat is the main script for start TSDuck to record a dump file, then rename the dump file and start himawari-rx__decode.bat automatically when TSDuck is terminated, and start TSDuck again at the same time to record next round.
If you want to choose device, just add argument 1 named "adapter" (if it is empty, the script will use adapter 0 automatically), it is like "-a N" or "--adapter N" for TSDuck. (Use tsp -I dvb --help command for help)
-a N
--adapter N
Specifies the Nth tuner device in the system. This option can be used
instead of device name.
For example (for adapter 1):
himawari-rx__auto.bat 1
himawari-rx__decode.bat is the script for start himawari-rx to receive files, and make pictures automatically. It will start automatically by the himawari-rx__auto.bat script.
himawari-rx__sataid.bat is the script for convert all received HRIT Data (HRIT File Format) to SATAID Data (SATAID Format) (It will start automatically by the himawari-rx__decode.bat script), then you can Register the SATAID Files to SATAID software.
Here is the download link of HimawariCast_software.zip (which SATAID is included in): https://www.data.jma.go.jp/mscweb/en/himawari89/himawari_cast/software/HimawariCast_software.zip.
Note: If you don't want to convert all received HRIT Data (HRIT File Format) to SATAID Data (SATAID Format) automatically, just remove the script himawari-rx__sataid.bat from himawari-rx's directory (at the same directory as himawari-rx.py), then this feature will be disabled.
The hrit2sataid folder is the directory of the programs for convert all received HRIT Data (HRIT File Format) to SATAID Data (SATAID Format), which are relied on by the himawari-rx__sataid.bat script.
The files of the hrit2sataid folder are extracted from HimawariCast_software.zip (https://www.data.jma.go.jp/mscweb/en/himawari89/himawari_cast/software/HimawariCast_software.zip).
Warnning: Do not remove this directory or any file of it when you are using the himawari-rx__sataid.bat script, or the himawari-rx__sataid.bat script can't work well.
himawari-rx__rmdir.bat is the script for remove the directories of hrit files after all pictures are made (functional like clear cache).
Warnning: This script mustn't run directly, to avoid it remove current directory and its all files!
Note: If you don't want to "remove the directories of hrit files after all pictures are made", just remove the script himawari-rx__rmdir.bat from himawari-rx's directory (at the same directory as himawari-rx.py), then this feature will be disabled.
time_monitor_to_terminate_TSDuck.bat is the script to terminate all TSDuck processes (tsp.exe) automatically every 10 minutes (when the last digit of minute is 5), then will make himawari-rx__decode.bat started automatically by himawari-rx__auto.bat.
Notice: all TSDuck processes (tsp.exe) will be terminated when it's time to terminate tsp.exe by this script!
start.vbs and start.bat are the one-click script of these scripts, you can using start.bat instead of start.vbs to get start if vbscript on your system is not allowed.
If you want to choose device, just add argument 1 named "adapter" (if it is empty, the script will use adapter 0 automatically), it is like "-a N" or "--adapter N" for TSDuck. (Use tsp -I dvb --help command for help)
-a N
--adapter N
Specifies the Nth tuner device in the system. This option can be used
instead of device name.
For example (for adapter 1):
start.bat 1
Usage:
(1) Be sure the operating system is Windows, TSDuck is installed, your hardwares is working and himawari-rx can work at the same machine.
(2) Then put the scripts of Windows version to himawari-rx's directory (at the same directory as himawari-rx.py).
(3) Finally just start start.vbs or start.bat (if vbscript on your system is not allowed), it will automatically start himawari-rx__auto.bat and time_monitor_to_terminate_TSDuck.bat at the same time, they will start to receive and make pictures automatically.
If you want to choose device, just add argument 1 named "adapter" (if it is empty, the script will use adapter 0 automatically), it is like "-a N" or "--adapter N" for TSDuck. (Use tsp -I dvb --help command for help)
-a N
--adapter N
Specifies the Nth tuner device in the system. This option can be used
instead of device name.
For example (for adapter 1):
start.bat 1
himawari-rx__auto.sh is functionally like himawari-rx__auto.bat in Windows version.
If you want to choose device or frontend, just add argument 1 named "device" (if it is empty, the script will use adapter0 and use the frontend automatically), it is like "-d name" or "--device-name name" for TSDuck. (Use tsp -I dvb --help command for help)
-d name
--device-name name
Specify the DVB receiver device name, /dev/dvb/adapterA[:F[:M[:V]]] where
A = adapter number, F = frontend number (default: 0), M = demux number
(default: 0), V = dvr number (default: 0). By default, the first receiver
device is used. Use the tslsdvb utility to list all DVB devices.
For example (for TBS5520SE Device [ adapter 0 frontend 1, is for DVB-S2 ]):
himawari-rx__auto.sh "/dev/dvb/adapter0:1"
himawari-rx__decode.sh is functionally like himawari-rx__decode.bat in Windows version.
himawari-rx__sataid.sh is functionally like himawari-rx__sataid.bat in Windows version.
The hrit2sataid folder is the same as the hrit2sataid folder in Windows version.
himawari-rx__rmdir.sh is functionally like himawari-rx__rmdir.bat in Windows version, but the remove commands is included in other scripts and not this script (just for mark to remove the directories of hrit files).
time_monitor_to_terminate_TSDuck.sh is functionally like time_monitor_to_terminate_TSDuck.bat in Windows version.
start.sh is functionally like start.bat in Windows version.
If you want to choose device or frontend, just add argument 1 named "device" (if it is empty, the script will use adapter0 and use the frontend automatically), it is like "-d name" or "--device-name name" for TSDuck. (Use tsp -I dvb --help command for help)
-d name
--device-name name
Specify the DVB receiver device name, /dev/dvb/adapterA[:F[:M[:V]]] where
A = adapter number, F = frontend number (default: 0), M = demux number
(default: 0), V = dvr number (default: 0). By default, the first receiver
device is used. Use the tslsdvb utility to list all DVB devices.
For example (for TBS5520SE Device [ adapter 0 frontend 1, is for DVB-S2 ]):
start.sh "/dev/dvb/adapter0:1"
Notice:
These scripts will automatically modify the decoder scripts to fix the bug of them when the path splitter is not for Linux (if it's for Windows only).
For exit these script, just create a file as /tmp/exit_himawari_rx.txt and terminate the tsp process, and don't forget to delete /tmp/exit_himawari_rx.txt if you want to start these automatic scripts again.
Usage:
(1) Be sure the operating system is Linux, TSDuck and wine installed (if you don't want to convert all received HRIT Data (HRIT File Format) to SATAID Data (SATAID Format) automatically, wine is not requried), your hardwares is working and himawari-rx can work at the same machine.
(2) Then put the scripts of Linux version to himawari-rx's directory (at the same directory as himawari-rx.py).
(3) Finally just start start.sh, it will automatically start himawari-rx__auto.sh and time_monitor_to_terminate_TSDuck.sh at the same time, they will start to receive and make pictures automatically.
If you want to choose device or frontend, just add argument 1 named "device" (if it is empty, the script will use adapter0 and use the frontend automatically), it is like "-d name" or "--device-name name" for TSDuck. (Use tsp -I dvb --help command for help)
-d name
--device-name name
Specify the DVB receiver device name, /dev/dvb/adapterA[:F[:M[:V]]] where
A = adapter number, F = frontend number (default: 0), M = demux number
(default: 0), V = dvr number (default: 0). By default, the first receiver
device is used. Use the tslsdvb utility to list all DVB devices.
For example (for TBS5520SE Device [ adapter 0 frontend 1, is for DVB-S2 ]):
