quDIS-protocol
|
This document describes how to access a quDIS interferometer from a PC without using the software delivered with the device.
The quDIS is equipped with an USB and an Ethernet connector that can be used for the PC connection. The ethernet connector will be disabled if the respective option is not activated for the device. The sections USB and Ethernet describe how to set up and handle a connection via the respecitve interface.
On top of these connections, the device uses a protocol for control and data acquisition; see section Protocol for a syntax description. ucprotocol.h contains constants and data structures belonging to the protocol.
The protocol provides methods to read and write device parameters, statuses, and results. A description of all those values and identificator constants for them can be found in qudis_protocol.h .
