Description: ===================
        BITalino Python API
        ===================
        
        BITalino is a low-cost toolkit that allows anyone to create projects and applications with body signals.
        Out of the box, BITalino has easy-to-use hardware with sensors for ECG, EMG, EDA, Motion and Light.
        
        This package provides the tools to interface with the BITalino hardware from Python.

        Release Notes
        -------------
        
        Version 0.6
        
        - Serial Baud rate was incorrectly set as 9600, instead of 115200
        - Known issues:
        
          - *version* method hangs
        
        Version 0.5
        
        - Included GPL license file
        - Known issues:
        
          - *version* method hangs
        
        Version 0.4
        
        - The API now supports using serial ports to communicate with the BITalino device;
          this removes the dependency on pybluez and enhances cross-platform compatibility (e.g. Mac OS)
        - Removed inconsistent scaling of analog channels A4 and A5 (6 bit channels)
        - Code style normalization
        - Improved type checks of analog and digital channels masks (*start* and *trigger* methods)
        - Known issues:
        
          - *version* method hangs

        Usage Example
        -------------
        
        >>> import bitalino
        >>> device = bitalino.BITalino()
        >>> 
        >>> macAddress = "00:13:01:04:04:15"
        >>> SamplingRate = 1000
        >>> device.open(macAddress, SamplingRate) # Set MAC address and sampling rate
        >>> 
        >>> th = device.battery(20) # Set battery threshold
        >>> 
        >>> BITversion = device.version() # Get BITalino firmware version
        >>> print "version: ", BITversion
        >>> 
        >>> device.start([0,3]) # Start Acquisition in Analog Channels 0 and 3
        >>> 
        >>> dataAcquired = device.read(1000) # Read 1000 samples
        >>> 
        >>> device.trigger([0,0,1,0]) # Turn on BITalino LED
        >>> 
        >>> device.stop() # Stop acquisition
        >>> device.close()
        >>> 
        >>> SeqN = dataAcquired[0,:]
        >>> D0 = dataAcquired[1,:]
        >>> D1 = dataAcquired[2,:]
        >>> D2 = dataAcquired[3,:]
        >>> D3 = dataAcquired[4,:]
        >>> A0 = dataAcquired[5,:]
        >>> A3 = dataAcquired[6,:]
        >>> print SeqN
