Example Python script to implement the PID controller

# pymoku example: Basic PID Controller
#
# This script demonstrates how to configure one of the two PID Controllers
# in the PID Controller instrument. Configuration is done by specifying
# frequency response characteristics of the controller.

from pymoku import Moku
from pymoku.instruments import PIDController


def from_dB(dB):
 # Helper function that converts from dB to linear scale
 return 10 ** (dB / 20.0)


# Connect to your Moku by its device name
# Alternatively, use Moku.get_by_serial('#####') or Moku('192.168.###.###')
m = Moku.get_by_name("Moku")

try:
 i = m.deploy_instrument(PIDController)

 # Configure the PID Controller using frequency response characteristics
 # P = -10dB
 # I Crossover = 100Hz
 # D Crossover = 10kHz
 # I Saturation = 10dB
 # D Saturation = 10dB
 # Double-I = OFF
 # Note that gains must be converted from dB first
 i.set_by_frequency(1, kp=from_dB(-10), i_xover=1e2, ii_xover=None,
 d_xover=1e4, si=from_dB(10), sd=from_dB(10))
 i.enable_output(1, True)

finally:
 # Close the connection to the Moku:Lab
 m.close()
