Driver for Thorlabs motorized shutter (SH05 with KSC101)

Matlab driver for Thorlabs motorized optical shutter SH05(/M) controlled by KSC101 K-Cube Solenoid Controller

This is a Matlab driver for Thorlabs motorized optical shutter SH05(/M) controlled by KSC101 K-Cube Solenoid Controller.

It is a class wrapper which calls the Kinesis .NET DLL library provided free from the Thorlabs.

Based on a code of Julan A.J. Fells - "Driver for Thorlabs motorized stages", which is acknowledged.

Example of usage:

>> shlist = shutter.listdevices  % List connected devices
>> sh1 = shutter                 % Create a first shutter object  
>> sh2 = shutter                 % Create a second shutter object  
>> sh1.connect(shlist{1})        % Connect the first shutter object to the first device in the list
>> sh2.connect('68250440')       % Connect the second shutter object to a device with a serial number 68250440
>> sh1.operatingmode             % Get current operating mode for sh1 
>> sh1.operatingmode='manual'    % Set operating mode to Manual
>> sh1.operatingstate            % Get current operating state
>> sh1.operatingstate='active'   % Set operating state to Active, which in Manual mode opens the shutter
>> sh1.operatingstate='inactive' % Set operating state to Inactive, which in Manual mode closes the shutter
>> sh1.state                     % Get shutter state: 'Open' / 'Closed'
>> sh1.disconnect                % Disconnect device
