| Except for 2-3 exception, the Newport 842-PE doesn't have real getter functions, but it has many setters. But is has a function (sta) that read device status for a lot of parameters. The previous file do a fake getter/setter. | |
| def status | |
| returns a dict where the key/value pairs correspond to each device parameter. | |
| At device initialisation, the device's configuration is read and stored in self.DeviceStatus | |
| The getter scale just read corresponding parameter in self.DeviceStatus and return it. | |
| The setter scale actually write to the device to change its state. |
