6 days ago Here's a script that finds the open ports that we can connect to - useful for finding the laser probably
from NKTP_DLL import *
print('Find modules on all existing and accessible ports - Might take a few seconds to complete.....')
if (getLegacyBusScanning()):
print('Scanning following ports in legacy mode:', getAllPorts())
else:
print('Scanning following ports in normal mode:', getAllPorts())
# Use the openPorts function with Auto & Live settings. This will scan and detect modules
# on all ports returned by the getAllPorts function.
# Please note that a port being in use by another application, will show up in this list but will
# not show any devices due to this port being inaccessible.
print(openPorts(getAllPorts(), 1, 1))
# All ports returned by the getOpenPorts function has modules (ports with no modules will automatically be closed)
print('Following ports has modules:', getOpenPorts())
# Traverse the getOpenPorts list and retrieve found modules via the deviceGetAllTypesV2 function
portlist = getOpenPorts().split(',')
for portName in portlist:
result, devList = deviceGetAllTypesV2(portName)
for devId in range(0, len(devList)):
if (devList[devId] != 0):
print('Comport:',portName,'Device type:',"0x%0.4X" % devList[devId],'at address:',devId)
# Close all ports
closeResult = closePorts('')
print('Close result: ', PortResultTypes(closeResult))

This would be particularly helpful for "white light" polarimetry that lets us measure the dispersion of optics to see if there is a polarization dependence.
The NKT SDK can be found here https://www.nktphotonics.com/support/
And if you download the SDK and run the installer, it comes with some sample files that we can use as a template for Derpy, for example, I think this turns Emission on:
