PyVISA is a Python package with bindings to the
industry-standard VISA library. It is used to
control measurement devices and test equipment via
GPIB, RS232, and USB.
Information regarding Project Releases and Project Resources. Note that the information here is a quote from Freecode.com page, and the downloads themselves may not be hosted on OSDN.
The library now explicitly supports serial instruments (RS232 and parallel port). Default termination characters were optimized for all bus systems. The documentation was improved.
Binary transfers were thoroughly implemented. Filename selection for the VISA library and an INI file are now available for all supported OSes. A complete SCPI programming example was added to the documentation.
