Overview

ScopeFoundry is a framework with two types of plugins:

1. HardwareComponents - interfaces with hardware devices.
2. Measurements - contains the logic to set the state of devices and read and store data.

The framework provides an app, defines interfaces between plug-ins, and handles threading to run plugins concurrently.

Users of ScopeFoundry are required to develop these plugins (unless they already exist) and add them to the app.

Plugin development

This website provides tutorials for creating (and sharing) ScopeFoundry App, HardwareComponents, and Measurements. Depending on your familiarity with ScopeFoundry, we recommend:

1. Getting Started: Install ScopeFoundry

2. Basic Tutorial: Your first app, basics on HardwareComponent and Measurement Plugin, and first Measurement.

3. Tips and Tricks: Elevate your plugin development.

4. Built-in Measurements: Scanning, parameter sweeping, PID feedback control, Sequencer … are amongst common measurement tasks that ScopeFoundry solves generically.

5. Check HardwareComponents Library for existing plugins.

6. To share and contribute to plugins here.

ScopeFoundry.DataBrowser

Somewhat independent of the above is the ScopeFoundry.DataBrowser - an app that can be used for quick data inspection. Learn to write Plugins using this tutorial.
