PI nano Pizeo Stage Controller python module

This python module provides access to some basic functionality for PI nano Piezo Stage Controllers. PI also distributes a bindings for their c++ library, but this python module uses the simple Serial Interface most controllers provide, which is more straightforward to use (IMHO).

If you are not 100% sure what you are doing, stick with the software supplied by PI.

Status

At the moment work is only done for the E-545 Controller, because that's the System that I use.

Quickstart

After installing test if it's working by:

import PIStage
stage = PIStage.E545()
print stage.pos()
