Experiments in the physical sciences have grown more complex over time, often requiring precise synchronization and automation across a range of measurement devices. The specialized nature of modern research has, in turn, led to the rise of custom, user-created software to propel it forward. Read on to learn more about how the reconfigurable Moku instrumentation platform and the <\/span>Moku Python API<\/span><\/a> work together to help users quickly customize their control stacks.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why use the Moku Python API? <\/span><\/h2>\n

Owing to its ease of use, diverse array of user-created packages, and abundant supporting resources, Python is the programming language of choice for experimental physics, bioinformatics, machine learning, and more. <\/span><\/p>\n

The philosophy behind the Moku hardware platform is similarly inspired, giving users a versatile toolbox of instruments on one FPGA-based device. However, easy-to-use software is also critical. As part of this design ethos, Moku gives users the choice of <\/span>several interfaces<\/span><\/a>, including Windows, macOS, iPadOS, and visionOS, plus multiple APIs, including the Moku Python API. By combining the flexibility of Moku with Python, users can easily integrate their Moku devices into existing setups while meeting their toughest research challenges. The next section describes how to install the Python API on your desktop system.<\/span><\/p>\n

Recommended prerequisites for the Moku Python API<\/span><\/h2>\n

Before installing the Moku package, ensure that you have a Python environment of at least version 3.5 installed on your computer. If you are new to Python, check out distributions such as <\/span>Anaconda<\/span><\/a>, which can help keep track of your installed packages and libraries, while supporting popular IDEs such as Spyder and Jupyter Notebooks. <\/span><\/p>\n

Even if you don\u2019t plan on using it as part of your experiments, we recommend having the <\/span>Moku software<\/span><\/a> installed on your computer. This will make it easier to check for things such as the IP address, firmware version, and connection status of your Moku device. Installing this app will not interfere with your Moku device\u2019s communication through Python.  <\/span><\/p>\n

Finally, if you wish to interact with your Moku via command line, install the <\/span>Moku CLI<\/span><\/a> utility \u2014 simply download and run the installer for your system. After installing, restart your Python environment to load the <\/span>moku cli <\/span><\/i>library. This is not strictly necessary to use the Python API, but it does have several handy functions, such as the ability to view your Moku IP address and convert between file types.<\/span><\/p>\n

Installing the Moku Python API package<\/span><\/h2>\n

Once you have installed these prerequisites, open a terminal and navigate to your root folder. If you\u2019re using Anaconda on Windows, you can launch this from the main navigation screen (CMD.exe). Otherwise, manually navigate to your Python root folder using the Command Prompt function. If you\u2019re a macOS user, simply run the Terminal program on your device. <\/span><\/p>\n

To test that you\u2019re in the right directory, try typing <\/span>python –version<\/strong> into the console. If a Python installation is detected, the console will return the version number, as seen in Figure 1.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"python<\/p>\n

Figure 1: Finding the Python installation.<\/span><\/p>\n

Next, install the Moku package using <\/span>pip, <\/span><\/i>an automated package manager. If you\u2019ve worked with Python before, this procedure will be familiar. Type<\/span> pip install moku<\/strong> and wait for the procedure to complete. After the command line appears again, check if the installation was successful by typing <\/span>python -c \u201cimport moku\u201d<\/strong>, as seen in Figure 2. If no error is returned, proceed to the next step. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"python<\/p>\n

Figure 2: Installing the API. Note that the API is already installed in this example, so check to make sure it installs successfully.<\/span><\/p>\n

Downloading the Moku data files<\/span><\/h2>\n

Now we need to install the actual datafiles that are used by the Moku instrument. It is critical to make sure that the firmware version of the datafiles that you download matches the firmware on your device. If you don\u2019t already know the version, you can check it with the Moku:app.<\/span><\/p>\n

Type <\/span>moku download –fw_ver=591<\/strong> into the console to start the download, as seen in Figure 3. These data files are large (~1 GB) and may take some time to download, depending on your connection speed. Once the data files are downloaded, you are almost finished. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"python<\/p>\n

Figure 3: Downloading the Moku datafiles. Note that the firmware is already installed in this example, so check to make sure it installs successfully. <\/span><\/p>\n

If your Moku is powered on and connected to the network, and you already installed the Moku CLI, you can see the IP information by typing <\/span>moku list<\/strong>. The console will then show the IP and firmware version information for each detected device, as seen in Figure 4.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"python<\/p>\n

Now that communication with Moku has been established, you can begin using the Moku Python API in your own custom scripts.<\/span><\/p>\n

Taking the next steps with the Moku Python API<\/span><\/h2>\n

If you are looking to take the next step with your Python code, there are many resources available. Please see our <\/span>API reference guide<\/span><\/a> for a full list of commands available. All 14 instruments, as well as Multi-instrument Mode, can have any of their settings configured through the API. There are also several <\/span>example scripts<\/span><\/a> available.<\/span><\/p>\n
