Software Innovation From Picarro

Great Instruments Demand Great Software

Python Code Base Provides Maximum Flexibility, Ease of Use, and Modular Functionality. GUI Makes It Ridiculously Easy to Use. The Power of a World-Class Scientific Instrument. The Presentation of a Desktop PC.  

• Python code-base is simple to maintain and reuse
• Elegant and intuitive GUI in Windows style. G2000. Views just like any standard GUI developed for Windows environments. 
• G2000 GUI supports multiple graphs and simulaneous side-by-side comparisons of trend and values of multiple data columns
• More functions are integrated into GUI, such as user calibration, instrument status reporting, and pulse analyzer.

Picarro sets the standard for software innovation in the gas analysis space with a rich feature set that adds enormous flexibility and extensibility to your analyzer. Our powerful yet intuitive GUI provides users with maximum flexibility for visualization and ease of accessing their data or operating all the functions of their analyzer from any PC or even from a handheld device such as iPhone.

The 2000-series analyzers are built on the popular and well supported Python code-base. Python is object oriented, meaning any module can be easily re-used or customized. This provides excellent flexibility to expand an analyzer or custom-written scripts from previous experiments with any new technical development or future software Picarro software upgrades. Python is easy to understand, maintain, and upgrade and enjoys wide acceptance among programmers, resulting in a broad pool of potential coding experts to help you with your analyzer software needs.

Python includes advanced features such as automatic memory management. This and other powerful built-in tools and libraries can save time and significantly shorten the development cycle. Further, Python code can be run on every major platform in use today, such as Windows, Unix, Linux, etc. This cross platform capabitly means scripts written on or for a Picarro can be used in other environments or vice versa.
