EIS reference data

Informative research behind the Eurorack Interface Specification (EIS): the module, case, supply, and bus board survey that Annex F summarises, and the catalogue rail sections that Annexes A to D compare. No requirement in EIS reads this repository. It is kept apart so that the specification stays small and its checks run with nothing else checked out.

Folder What
survey/ Module depths, current draws, cases, supplies, and bus boards, each figure with its source; survey.py hands a copy to a specification checkout, which generates Annex F and the depth card from it
vendors/ Rail and insert sections from Schroff, Gie-Tec, HEITEC, Verotec, Vector, and TipTop, drawn to one frame, with the scripts that check them against the specification's limits
sources.json Every third-party document consulted: URL, retrieval date, and SHA-256; none is stored here
iec-60297.md What the public front matter of IEC 60297-3-100 to -105 says

Working with a specification checkout

The scripts hand data to, and compare against, a checkout of the specification. Point them at it with --spec PATH, with EIS_SPEC, or by cloning the two repositories side by side as eurorack-specification and eis-reference.

python survey/survey.py --spec ../eurorack-specification --check   # the specification's copy of the survey is this one, and its Annex F is current
python survey/survey.py --spec ../eurorack-specification           # copy the survey there and regenerate Annex F and the depth card
python vendors/schroff/schroff_rail.py --spec ../eurorack-specification

python -m pytest tests checks the data files and, when a specification checkout is found, that its copy of the survey is current. The specification keeps that copy in its data/survey/, with the commit it was copied at, so that its own checks and builds run with nothing else checked out; tools/survey.py --pull there does the same copy from this side.
