Python API?

Post by Tianbi Zhang »

Hi all,
I'd like to develop a beam scan and control routine with the API. Basically, I have a custom camera in the SEM to capture diffraction patterns and the SEM should operate in the spot mode. I'd like to move the beam to a position, control the camera to capture, then move the beam to the next position (by incrementing X and/or Y).

The camera is controlled by a Python script so I'd like to have all my code to be in Python. But it seems that the API only has C++, C# and VB support, and I don't know these languages at all. Is there a Python version of the API, or a Python wrapper for the C++/C# libraries that I can use?

Thanks in advance,
Tianbi

Dear Tianbi and Jonas

The API now can be controlled by Python, please contact with the application or sales in your area to check if your API edition can support Python or not.

Dear Tingting,
I did reach out to the application specialists in my area and I am waiting for a reply. But I fail to see the point of a developer community like this if it is not to provide information or answers to such questions.
Best wishes,
