Connect to the Thermotron 3800 in Python

PROTOCOLS > SCPI

PyMeasure

from pymeasure.adapters import VISAAdapter
from pymeasure.instruments.thermotron import Thermotron3800

# Create a VISA adapter for communication with the instrument
adapter = VISAAdapter("TCPIP::192.168.1.1::INSTR")  # Replace with the actual IP address of the instrument

# Create an instance of the Thermotron3800 instrument
thermotron = Thermotron3800(adapter)

# Connect to the instrument
thermotron.connect()

# Read the instrument identification
id = thermotron.id
print("Instrument ID:", id)

# Read the current temperature of the oven
temperature = thermotron.temperature
print("Temperature:", temperature)

# Get the operating mode of the oven
mode = thermotron.mode
print("Operating Mode:", mode)

# Set the setpoint of the oven to 50 degrees Celsius
thermotron.setpoint = 50

# Start temperature forcing
thermotron.run()

# Wait for the oven to reach the setpoint
while thermotron.temperature < thermotron.setpoint:
    pass

# Stop temperature forcing
thermotron.stop()

# Disconnect from the instrument
thermotron.disconnect()

Note: Replace "TCPIP::192.168.1.1::INSTR" with the actual VISA address of the Thermotron 3800 Temperature Controller.
