While the Moku software and mokucli are not currently available for ARM processors, it is possible to use API commands to control your Moku. 

To install the Moku Python API onto the Raspberry Pi, first open up a terminal and run python -m pip install moku and wait for that to complete. Then, run moku download --fw_ver=601(replace 601 with the most recent firmware version). This will install the instrument bitstreams for the associated firmware version. 

It is also possible to download the API package directly from our website which is available here. 

The way in which you discover your Moku's IP will depend on how your Moku is connected.

Ethernet:

1. Run sudo arp-scan --interface=wlan0 --localnet in your terminal. This will return all devices that are connected to your network. 

     2. To determine which IP corresponds with your Moku, look for the Liquid Instruments MAC addresses. The address will depend on your hardware platform.              For Moku:Pro the address is 70:69:79:b0. For Moku:Go it's 70:69:79:b9, and for the Moku:Lab it is 70:b3:d5:87

     3. Record the IP address of the Moku. In your script, connect to your Moku by running: i=Oscilloscope('192.168.##.##', force_connect=True).

USB:

1. Run ip n. The return message will be something like this.

2. Look for the Liquid Instruments MAC address to locate your Moku. Take note of the IPv6 address as well as the %suffix. These will both be needed to communicate with Moku.  

3. To establish an API connection, use the following syntax:

i=Oscilloscope(‘[IPv6%suffix]’, force_connect=True)

For example, for this terminal output the syntax would be:

i=Oscilloscope(‘[fe80::7269:79ff:feb9:49a%enx706979b90499]’, force_connect=True)

Troubleshooting

Sometimes, you will receive an error similar to the following:

requests.exceptions.ConnectionError: HTTPConnectionPool

This is due to the Python requests package being incompatible. To fix this, run:

pip install requests==2.31.0

Some operating systems require requests package v2.32.2:

pip install requests==2.32.2
