Python package for kinisi motor controller. This package is used to control the kinisi motor controller via serial interface.
Description of the commands can be found in Kinisi Motion Controller framework documentation

Install pykinisi with pip:

pip install pykinisi

This example shows how to connect to the motor controller and control a single motor.\

import time
from pykinisi import *

port = "COM3"

controller = KinisiController()
if not controller.connect(port):
    print(f"Can't open serial connection. Port: {port}")
    exit()

# Motor test
motor_index = MotorIndex.Motor0
speed = 40 # Speed in percentage

# Is motor reversed 
is_reversed = False
 
controller.initialize_motor(motor_index, is_reversed)

# Set motor speed to speed
controller.set_motor_speed(motor_index, speed)
time.sleep(5)

# Stop motor
controller.stop_motor(motor_index)

There are several examples in the examples folder which show how to use the pykinisi package to control the kinisi motor controller.
Run the examples with:

cd examples
python <example_file> <serial_port>
