Python command line tools to get/set MultiClamp parameters

[Oli Steele]

Hi Luke,

Hope you’re well. We’re interesting in getting and/or setting properties within MultiClamp 700B such as the primary signal gain etc., from a Python command line. I can see that ACQ4 does this quite successfully, but can’t quite figure out how it’s done or how to do it myself. Are you able to provide any tips on this?

Thanks in advance, look forward to hearing from you.

Cheers,
Oli

Hullo Oli,

As a start, I would have a look at the multiclamp test script:  https://github.com/acq4/acq4/blob/develop/acq4/drivers/MultiClamp/test.py

That demonstrates how to list the available devices and read parameters from them one at a time. After that, look at the methods available in the MultiClampChannel class: https://github.com/acq4/acq4/blob/develop/acq4/drivers/MultiClamp/multiclamp.py#L63; you're probably interested in setParams, setMode, and setSignal.

Have fun!

Luke

Thanks Luke,

That's just what Oli and I needed to get us going.

Best
