LambdaMeter

Version 1

This is a minimal fork of py-ws7 relying on Telnet for the server / client communication.

This directly implements a server thread running continuously in the Wavemeter class allowing any client to connect and query the wavelength / frequency as long as one instance is running.

For the Telnet server it relies on TelnetServer.

Usage

Installation of the server

1. Clone the repository on the computer with the Wavemeter.
2. run python tests/TestServerWlm.py

Installation of the client

1. Clone the repository on the computer with the client.
2. run python tests/TestClientWlm.py

Debug

Verification of Telnet server client configuration

• run python examples/SimpleServer.py to launch the dummy server on the default port 1234.
• In a second terminal run python examples/SimpleClient.py to verify the server is running correctly.

Run some tests ?

• run python tests/TestServerWlm.py to launch the server with dummy data (or the real one if you are on the Windows machine and you have the DLL)
• In a second terminal, run python tests/TestClientWlm.py to connect to the server and query the wavelength / frequency.
• Update this print(client.get_wavelength(2)) in the client to get the desired channel.

Future features ?
