Description
The presentation will explain using Python to make Excel EPICS-aware. This same technique can be applied to any application that acts as an "Automation Server"; such as AutoCAD, MS Word and other programs in the Microsoft Office "Productivity" Suite.
The mechanism that exposes these "automation objects" is implemented at the O/S level, so any language that can make system calls can control these servers (e.g. VBA, .NET, Delphi, C++, Python).
The live demos will show implementations of this technique for test automation, diagnostics and PV prototyping.
