Isolated voltage source Stanford Research Systems SIM928#

Isolated voltage source SIM928 produced by Stanford Research Systems. The manual of the instrument is available at SRS.

This instrument requires to use the corresponding SRS SIM900 mainframe. The connection will be established first to the mainframe, which will then create a passthrough to the port where the SIM928 is installed.

Base class: qtics.instruments.serial_inst.SerialInst.

Example of operations#

from qtics import SRS_SIM928

source = SRS_SIM928(name = "source", address = "/dev/ttyACM0")
source.connect()

To execute commands:

source.voltage = 1 # set output voltage in volts
print(source.voltage)  # get output voltage from instrument
source.output_on() # turn on output
source.output_off() # turn off output
source.dev_error() # get last device error

source.connect_port(2) # change port of SIM900 mainframe
source.disconnect_port() # disconnect the device and reset the SIM900 mainframe
