Thorlabs Compact Laser Diode
============================

Controls a Thorlabs Compact Laser Diode (CLD) using ``pyvisa``. This service requires the VXIpnp VISA Instrument Driver to be
installed on the host system. The driver can be downloaded from the
`Thorlabs website <https://www.thorlabs.com/software_pages/viewsoftwarepage.cfm?code=4000_Series>`_ and is also included
on the CD that is shipped with the device.

Successfully tested with the following devices:

- Thorlabs CLD1010LP
- Thorlabs CLD1011
- Thorlabs CLD1015
