# ATTI-CPX400DP Python Module

## Overview

The AimTTI CPX400DP Python module provides a class for interfacing with CPX400DP power supplies through serial communication via a USB cable. It allows control through a UI when run as \_\_main\_\_ or can be imported into code and can be scripted. Included are features for connecting to a power supply, setting voltage and current values, enabling/disabling channels, retrieving status information, and more.

## Installation

CPX400DP.py must be downloaded into the project folder. It is not available yet through PIP as of yet (I might do this one day)

## Usage

Eample script:

```py

from CPX400DP import CPX400DP

# Instantiate the CPX400DP class

power_supply = CPX400DP()

com_port = 'COM3'

if com_port is None:

    # Alternately, if only 1 power supply is connected, attempt to autoconnect

    power_supply.autoConnect()

else:

    # Connect to the power supply

    power_supply.connect(com_port)

# Set voltage to 5V and current to 0.5A for the left channel

power_supply.setVoltage(5, channel=1)

power_supply.setCurrent(0.5, channel=1)

# Enable the output

power_supply.enableOutput(channel=1)

# Disable the output

power_supply.disableOutput(channel=1)

# Disconnect from the power supply

power_supply.disconnect() # Note: This does not disable the outputs!!

```
