Controlling LCVR controller box by Matlab

Hi All,

I would like to use Matlab to control the LCC25 box from Thorslab using "serialport" function. I wonder if anyone has experiences in this set up. I am very appreciated if you can spare sometimes sharing with me.

Hi Van,

To control a Thorlabs LCC25 box in MATLAB using the "serialport" function:

Determine the correct COM port and communication settings (baud rate, data bits, stop bits, parity) from the LCC25 manual.

Establish Connection

   port = "COM3"; % Replace with your COM port
   baudrate = 115200; % Replace with the correct baud rate
   serialObj = serialport(port, baudrate);
   % Configure settings as needed

Send Commands and Read Responses

  command = "your_command_here"; % Replace with LCC25 command
  write(serialObj, command, "string");
  response = readline(serialObj);

Close Connection

  delete(serialObj);
  clear serialObj;

Ensure you replace placeholders with actual commands and settings for the LCC25. Always refer to the device manual for accurate command syntax and communication settings.
