Exception when closing Thorlabs CCS spectrometer #114

Open graham-triggs opened 4 years ago

graham-triggs commented 4 years ago

I'm getting this exception when my script finishes. I am successfully closing the spectrometer with the close() method (I think), as this error only appears after my whole script finishes. As it happens on closing it isn't a huge problem but I'd like to get it working correctly. I'm using pyton 3.8 32bit and cloned the latest instrumental version. Everything else with using the spectrometer via instrumental seems to be working fine. Thanks for any help!

Thanks for the report. Can you test if the error still occurs if you remove your call to close()? I'm wondering if this is because of a double-close or a more specific issue with __del__().

Just to add testament from a second person, I'm getting the same issue. I can recreate it with the following code:

from instrumental import instrument, list_instruments

paramsets = list_instruments(module='spectrometers')
daq = instrument(paramsets[0])

intensity, wavelength = (daq.take_data())
print(intensity)

which yields the following exception (basically the same as @graham-triggs):
