sdg1032x-tspspi 0.0.1a1

Unofficial library to control SDG1032X arbitrary waveform generators

SDG1032X Python library

This (unofficial) library allows one to control some functions of the SDG1032X arbitrary waveform generator using Python in a simple way via Ethernet.

Exposed functionality:

Functionality	Function	Implemented	Tested	Comments
Identify	identify()	y	y	Queries the output of IDN, raw binary output
Factory defaults	factoryDefaults()	y		Resets all device state to factory defaults
Enable output	outputEnable(channel=1, polarity=POLARITY_NORMAL, load="HZ")	y	y	Enabled the output of the function generator
Disable output	outputDisable(channel=1)	y	y	Disables the output of the function generator
Set duty cycle	setDutyCycle(dutycycle, channel=1)	y	y	Sets duty cycle
Enabling burst mode	setBurstModeEnable(channel=1)	y	y
Disabling burst mode	setBurstModeDisable(channel=1)	y	y
Setting burst period	setBurstPeriod(period, channel=1)	y	y	Burst period
Setting burst delay	setBurstDelay(delay, channel=1)	y	y
Setting burst tigger	setBurstTriggerSource(triggerSource, channel=1)	y	y	Sets internal, external or manual trigger
Setting burst mode	setBurstMode(burstMode, channel=1)	y	y
Triggering burst	triggerBurst(channel=1)	y
Set waveform	setWaveType(waveform, channel=1)	y	y	Sets the waveform of the signal
Set frequency	setWaveFrequency(frequency, channel=1)	y	y	Sets the waves frequency
Set period	setWavePeriod(period, channel=1)	y	y	Sets the waves period
Set wave amplitude	setWaveAmplitude(vpp, channel=1)	y		Sets the amplitude of the wave in Vpp
Set wave offset	setWaveOffset(offsetV, channel=1)	y		Sets the offset of the wave in V

Usage example

with SDG1032X("10.0.0.14") as sdg:
    print("Identify returns: {}".format(sdg.identify()))

    sdg.setWaveType(sdg.WAVEFORM_SINE)

    for f in range(100, 1100, 100):
        sdg.setWavePeriod(f)

Installation

There are two ways of simply installing the library. One can install if via pip from PyPi:

pip install pysdg1032x-tspspi

Or one can install it from the downloaded ZIP file from the Releases section by using pip (substituting X.Y.Z by the desired version number):

pip install pysdg1032x-tspspi-X.Y.Z.tar.gz

The CLI utility

There is a simple CLI utility that allows one to control the function generator from the commandline or via scripts. This tool is called sdg1032x:

SDG1032X signal generator remote control utility

Note: This tool is an inofficial tool and in no way associated
with Siglent

Usage:
	sdg1032x [settings] <commands>

Settings:
	--host ADDRESS		Sets the remote hostname or IP

Commands:
	id			Asks the SDG for it's identity
	defaults		Resets the SDG to it's factory defaults

Simple channel commands:
	on N			Enabled the channel N
	off N			Disabled the channel N

Waveform commands:
	wavetype N WTYPE	Sets the selected wave type. Valid options are:
				sine	Sinusoidal waveform
				square	Square wave
				ramp	Ramping
				pulse	Pulsing
				noise	Noise generator
				arbitrary	Arbitrary waveform from WAV
				dc	Discrete current
				prbs	Pseudo random binary sequence
	frq N FREQ		Set frequency of channel N to FREQ Hz
	period N PERIOD		Set period of channel N to PERIOD seconds
	amp N AMP		Set amplitude of wave for channel N to AMP Vpp
	offset N OFF		Set offset of channel N to OFF V

Burst mode commands (per channel):
	duty N CYCLE		Sets the burst duty cycle for channel N to CYCLE percent
	burston N		Enables burst mode for channel N
	burstoff N		Disables burst mode for channel N
	burstperiod N PERIOD	Sets the burst period for channel N to PERIOD seconds
	burstdelay N DELAY	Sets the burst delay for channel N to DELAY seconds
	bursttrigsource N SRC	Sets the given trigger source. Valid options are:
				int	internal trigger source
				ext	external trigger source
				man	manual trigger source
	burstmode N MODE	Sets the burst mode. Valid modes are:
				gate	Gated burst mode
				ncyc	Number of cycles burst mode
	burst N			Trigger burst on channel N
