Lab Automation

Most of the lab equipments support Ethernet connection, and it is possible to programmatically control the equipments with Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments (SCPI) protocol.

Here's a Python wrapper for the SCPI protocol. Various instruments will be added to this library.

Note: Most of the instruments use TCP socket connection on port 5025, but this is not specified by the spec, and may differ.

Example

import time

from cc.scpi import SiglentSPD3303X

device = SiglentSPD3303X("128.32.62.100")
device.connect()

print(device.getInstrumentIdentification())

device.setVoltage(0.1, device.Channel.CH1)
device.enableOutput(device.Channel.CH1)

time.sleep(1)

print(device.getVoltage(device.Channel.CH1))
print(device.getCurrent(device.Channel.CH1))
print(device.getPower(device.Channel.CH1))


device.disableOutput(device.Channel.CH1)
