API

• AgiltronSelfAlign(resource_name, timeout=2.0, number_of_ports=16, baudrate=9600, write_timeout=None, inter_byte_timeout=None)
  • Opens the serial connection to the switch.
  • write_timeout=None defaults to the read timeout value.
• set_fiber_port(fiber_port)
  • Switches to the requested fiber port and validates the acknowledgement frame.
• home()
  • Sends the home command to move the switch to port 1.
• close()
  • Closes the serial connection.
• AgiltronSelfAlignError
  • Raised for serial communication failures and protocol response errors.
