Re: [itom-discussions] ThorLabs Elliptec Software Devices Plugin

[Marc G. <mar...@gm...>]

Hello,

currently there is no itom plugin available for your device, therefore you
would probably need to program it by yourself.

However, I googled "ELL14K Rotating Mount Python" and found the following
github resource, where somebody
programmed a Python script to communicate with the stage directly via
Python. The only requirement is the
Python package "serial" (that you can get via the Python Packages dialog of
itom), hence, the stage is controlled
via the RS232 connection. It would also be possible to use the itom plugin
serialIO instead of the Python serial package,
however the outcome is pretty much the same. So if you don't need any
specific configuration dialogs or toolboxes, it
would probably be the easiest way to use the following script:

Cheers
Marc
