When Python Makes Sense for Your Application

Python-Logo

orcaSDK is a Python source development kit for Windows and Linux machines that provides an easy to use library for high speed control and feedback from ORCA motors. orcaSDK is a user-friendly abstraction for the Modbus RTU interface. orcaSDK allows full control of all ORCA features, and is ideal for all modes of operation, including granular real-time control of position and force, and data logging. orcaSDK is well suited as a way to integrate ORCA motors into more complex existing applications. orcaSDK can be used in tandem with IrisControls.
