Call()

call() is must be used to return any measured or other value to SweepMe!. It must return a tuple or a list of all values according to the defined variables and units of the driver. In order to improve the speed of measurements, the concept of unblocking parallelization can be used.

Driver programming

The use of call can be omitted in a driver if no variables and units have been defined in a driver.

Data types

To make sure that your returned data can be handled, please make sure that it is converted into python data types such as 'str', 'int', 'float', 'list' or a numpy array.

• Plotting: data must be of type 'int', 'float', list of floats, numpy array
• Saving data: Data that is 0-dimensional (0D), e.g. int, str, float is saved to the main data file. Data from lists, or arrays is saved to a file which contains 1-dimensional (1D) data. For each iteration of the sequencer, a new file for 1D data is created.
