The Ps Controller is a local python web server to control the PS201 adjustable power supply. See http://github.com/mannsi/PS201.
Currently there is no decided release date
The easiest way to install is to run sudo python3 setup.py install
. Note that this will try to download and install python dependencies so a network connection is probably needed (see the setup.py file for dependencies).
Precondition: Your user needs to belong to the user group 'dialout' to be able to access the usb port of the PS201.
- Connect the PS201 via usb to your computer
- From terminal run
ps_controller
. This runs a local web server that exposes the PS201. By default the server uses port 8080. To use port XXX runps_controller --port XXX
instead. - From your favorite browser, go the the path 'localhost:8080'. This should open a web UI for the PS201
See the http://github.com/mannsi/PsController/wiki for details on the local web server API.
