AirSpy module

This module is used to create a JSRadio type object for AirSpy hardware connected to the USB port.

.makeDevice

Creates a new AirSpy receiver. The returned object is of type JSRadio, refer to the Using radio introduction for examples.

  var radio = AirSpy.makeDevice( { 'serial': '0xF8A868FF29624147', 'device_name' : 'board0'} );

Note: this command works when we have only one bladeRF card connected:

var rx = AirSpy.makeDevice({"device_name" : "test"});

.list

List the connected AirSpy receivers. Returns an array of objects with:

     data_type: 'airspy_device'
     device_name : unique name,
     board_id_name : 'AIRSPY' returned name by libairspy,
     board_version : type identification
     part_id: number
     serial : serial number
     sample_rates_hz: [array of supported rates]

  var list = AirSpy.list();
  if( list.length == 0 ) {
    print('no device');
    exit();
  }
  print( JSON.stringify( list ));

Returns, with one single AirSpy mini connected:

  print('We have ' + list.length + ' boards.');
  var x = list[0] ;
  var radio = AirSpy.makeDevice( x );
