A python interface for the MeCom protocol by Meerstetter. This package was developed to control several TEC devices on a raspberry pi by connecting them via usb.

1. this code is only tested in Python 3 running in a linux OS
2. pySerial in a version >= 3.1 https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pyserial
3. PyCRC https://pypi.python.org/pypi/PyCRC

1. clone the repository
2. setup a virtualenv in python (you may skip this step)
3. install the package with either pip or setuptools, e.g. pip install --user .
4. python mecom/mecom.py to see some example output

For a basic example look at mecom/mecom.py, the __main__ part contains an example communication.

Only parameters present in mecom/commands.py can be used, this is a security feature in case someone uses a parameter like "flash firmware" by accident. Feel free to add more parameters to mecom/commands.py.

This is by no means a polished software, contribution by submitting to this repository is appreciated.
