## Instructions for installing the SENTIO® prober control Python package

The package for controlling MPI probe stations running the MPI SENTIO Software suite is now available via [pythons package index](https://pypi.org/project/sentio-prober-control/). To install the
package simply type:

```python -m pip install sentio-prober-control```

If you already have a version of the package installed you can update the existing package with this command:

```python -m pip install sentio-prober-control --upgrade```

You no longer need to download the package by yourself, just use pip. If you cannot access the internet from your machine you can still download the archives from [the release section of this project](https://github.com/SentioProberDev/SentioProberControl/releases/).

## API Documentation

## Example-Scripts

A set of example scripts for python is maintained in a separate archive at GitHub.

## Troubleshooting

Most problems arise from having multiple python environments on the local machine and installing the sentio-prober-control package into the wrong python environment. You can list all installed packages with the command:

```python -m pip list```

Make sure that the sentio-prober-control package in the latest version is in that list.
