plico_interferometer

client of an interferometer controlled under the plico environment

How to use it

On the client side, in order to use the interferometer, installation of the plico_interferometer package is required. The steps required for the startup are

• Have a Python working environment (no specific version is required, but preferably higher than 3)

• Install the Python library using the command pip install plico_interferometer

• Open a terminal and execute the following commands

import plico_interferometer
interf = plico_interferometer.interferometer(hostServer, portServer)

• Use standard command as interf.wavefront(n_images)

Direct connection with WCF 4D

To connect to 4Ds with WCF (such as the 6110), for which it is not strictly necessary to have a plico server because the 4D SW itself implements a server and responds to json requests, it is possible to follow this steps directly from the client

• Have a Python working environment (no specific version is required, but preferably higher than 3)

• Install the Python library using the command pip install plico_interferometer

• Open a terminal and execute the following commands

import plico_interferometer
interf = plico_interferometer.interferometer_4SightFocus_client(ip, port)

If you want to use the burst frame acquisition option you have to use the standard server/client structure... TO BE IMPLEMENTED

plico_interferometer is an application to control motors under the plico environment.
