About¶

These web pages describe the ERACS Python Interface which can be used to run ERACS calculations programmatically using the Python programming language.

Authors¶

Dominic Edhouse, Clive Wickham, Kevin Davey

Supported Python Versions¶

Python 3.5+ 32-bit

Note

The ERACS Python Interface was developed with Python 3.5+ and the Interface may work with older versions of Python, but for best reliability use up-to-date versions of both Python and the Interface. For more information on setting up Python and the Interface, view Python Setup.

Supported Virtual Environment Versions¶

Python 3.7+ 32-bit

The Python Interface setup wizard uses venv to create the virtual environment. Venv differs between Python versions, and Python 3.7+ is recommended to ensure the ERACS Python Editor works.

Notable Changes From Previous Interface Version¶

The Impedance module now supports Harmonic Impedance profiles…
- Class FileXml.TEracsFileXml now loads impedance profile data.
- New method Impedance.TEracsImpedance.LoadImpedanceProfileData() available in the low-level API.
- New class ImpedanceRecords.TImpedanceProfileData available to pass to the low-level API.
- The high-level API supports impedance profile data, no changes necessary to user code.
