Module containing labscript suite hardware compatibility, separate from the main programs. Device compatibility is implemented with a plugin architecture, for modularity and extensibility. Each file in this module contains a labscript device class, a BLACS tab class, a BLACS worker class and a runviewer parser class for a particular device. These implement functionality for the device which the programs in question call on when they encounter each device in user labscript code, hdf5 files, or connection tables.
