PyChilasLasers
Python library for controlling Chilas Atlas and Comet tunable lasers.
Overview
PyChilasLasers is a Python interface for control of Chilas Atlas and Comet tunable laser. It provides:
- Device communication
- Three operating modes (Manual / Tune / Sweep*)
- Manual: Control of all internal laser parameters
- Tune: Wavelength tuning based on a calibration look-up table
- Sweep: Continuous wavelength sweeping (*Comet only)

Quick Example
Basic connection & wavelength set (see full script in examples/basic_usage.py):
#Minimal conceptual snippet: see examples for real usage
from pychilaslasers import Laser
laser = Laser("COM_PORT","path/to/calibration/file")
laser.mode = LaserModes.TUNE
laser.tune.wavelength = 1550.0
print(laser.wavelength)
