pip install di2008-python

Instantiate DI2008 Object with Dictionary of Parameters:

from di2008_python import DI2008, DI2008Channels, DI2008Layout, DI2008TCType

# Enable the DI-2008 with a K-Type thermocopule in Analog Channel 1, an N-Type Thermocouple in Analog Channel 3, and the Digital Channel active
di2008 = DI2008({
    <DI-2008 SERIAL NUMBER>: {
        DI2008Channels.CH1: (DI2008Layout.TC, DI2008TCType.K),
        DI2008Channels.CH3: (DI2008Layout.TC, DI2008TCType.N),
        }
    },
    use_digital=True)
