PyViLab

Introduction

Python CLI and GUI application to control RIGOL devices through pyvilab_lib.

Supported equipment:

• multimeter RIGOL DM3068
• oscilloscope RIGOL DS1202Z-E, DS2072A
• generator RIGOL DG1022A

Requirements

• Python (tested with 3.8+)
• matplotlib
• numpy
• argparse

Installation

• SW instalation
  • No instalation is required in actual version. Only needed to clone repository.

git clone https://gitlab.nsoric.com/mtf/lab/pyvilab.git

And then you can directly run .py script or prepared bash scrips.

• HW instalation
  • Refer to pyvilab_lib manual.

Usage

CLI python script

• multimeter.py FUNCTION [-r] [-s] : run measure on multimeter.
  • FUNCTION - can be one of: VOLTAGE_DC, VOLTAGE_AC, CURRENT_DC, CURRENT_AC, RESISTANCE, RESISTANCE, CONTINUITY, DIODE or CAPACITANCE
  • -r : range. Range code. Enter allowed key values:
  • for CURRENT_DC: 0:200μA, 1:2mA , 2:20mA, 3:200mA, 4:2A, 5:10A, AUTO
  • for CURRENT_AC: 0:20mA, 1:200mA, 2:2A, 3:10A, AUTO
  • for VOLTAGE_DC: 0:200mV, 1:2V, 2:20V, 3:200V, 4:1000V, AUTO
  • for VOLTAGE_AC: 0:200mV, 1:2V, 2:20V, 3:200V, 4:750V, AUTO
  • for RESISTANCE: 0:200Ω, 1:2kΩ, 2:20kΩ, 3:200kΩ, 4:1MΩ, 5:10MΩ, 6:100MΩ, AUTO
  • for FRESISTANCE: 0:200Ω, 1:2kΩ, 2:20kΩ, 3:200kΩ, 4:1MΩ, 5:10MΩ, 6:100MΩ, AUTO
  • for FREQUENCY: 0:200mV, 1:2V, 2:20V, 3:200V, 4:750V, AUTO
  • for PERIOD: 0:200mV, 1:2V, 2:20V, 3:200V, 4:750V, AUTO
  • for CAPACITANCE: 0:2nF, 1:20nF, 2:200nF, 3:2μF, 4:200μF, 5:10000μF, AUTO
  • -s : measuring speed/rate. Available values: FAST (cca 4ms), MEDIUM (cca 10ms), SLOW (4s). Defaults to FAST.

CLI bash scripts

• multimeter_DCV.sh - perform DC voltage measurement in FAST mode, with maximal range (1000V)

Measured data form CLI scripts are stored in ./data folder. Name of measure file contains date timestamp as a filename.
