Connect to the PL303QMD-P in Python

PROTOCOLS > SCPI

QCodes

To connect to a PL303QMD-P Power Supply using Qcodes, you can use the following Python script:

from qcodes.instrument_drivers.aimtti.AimTTi import AimTTi

# Create an instance of the AimTTi instrument
aim_tti = AimTTi("aim_tti", "TCPIP0::192.168.1.1::inst0::INSTR")

# Connect to the instrument
aim_tti.connect()

# Now you can use the instrument to perform operations
# For example, to get the voltage of channel 1:
voltage = aim_tti.ch1.volt.get()
print("Voltage:", voltage)

# You can also set the voltage of channel 1:
aim_tti.ch1.volt.set(5.0)

# Disconnect from the instrument
aim_tti.disconnect()

Note: Replace "TCPIP0::192.168.1.1::inst0::INSTR" with the actual VISA resource address of your PL303QMD-P Power Supply.
