Function Documentation

◆ GOpen()

gclib.py.GOpen	(		self,
			address )

Opens a connection a galil controller.

See the gclib docs for address string formatting.

Definition at line 135 of file gclib.py.

◆ GClose()

gclib.py.GClose ( self )

Closes a connection to a Galil Controller.

Definition at line 145 of file gclib.py.

◆ GInfo()

gclib.py.GInfo ( self )

Provides a useful connection string.

Please include the output of this function on all support cases.

Definition at line 219 of file gclib.py.

◆ GIpRequests()

gclib.py.GIpRequests ( self )

Provides a dictionary of all Galil controllers requesting IP addresses via BOOT-P or DHCP.

Returns a dictionary mapping 'model-serial' --> 'mac address' e.g. {'DMC4000-783': '00:50:4c:20:03:0f', 'DMC4103-9998': '00:50:4c:38:27:0e'}

Linux/OS X users must be root to use GIpRequests() and have UDP access to bind and listen on port 67.

Definition at line 227 of file gclib.py.

◆ GAssign()

gclib.py.GAssign	(	self,
		ip,
		mac )

Assigns IP address over the Ethernet to a controller at a given MAC address.

Linux/OS X users must be root to use GAssign() and have UDP access to send on port 68.

Definition at line 247 of file gclib.py.

◆ GAddresses()

gclib.py.GAddresses ( self )

Provides a dictionary of all available connection addresses.

Returns a dictionary mapping 'address' -> 'revision reports', where possible e.g. {}

Definition at line 258 of file gclib.py.

◆ GTimeout()

gclib.py.GTimeout	(		self,
			timeout )

Set the library timeout.

Set to -1 to use the initial library timeout, as specified in GOpen.

Definition at line 374 of file gclib.py.

◆ timeout() [1/2]

gclib.py.timeout ( self )

Convenience property read access to timeout value.

If -1, gclib uses the initial library timeout, as specified in GOpen.

Definition at line 385 of file gclib.py.

◆ timeout() [2/2]

gclib.py.timeout	(		self,
			timeout )

Convenience property write access to timeout value.
