I am trying to have the bus loads in PSS/E to change by using python program. So I am trying to write a script in python where I could change loads to different values between two buses in PSS/E.
You can use API routine called "LOAD_CHNG_4" (search for this routin in API.pdf documentation). This routine belongs to the set of load data specification functions. It can be used to modify the data of an existing load in the working case.
Look at chapter II of the PSSE python API. It completely covers changing power flow data. Load data can be referenced with the bus number and load ID. You can change all the parameters you see in the nameplate when you manually enter in the load data itself. Use this function below to change the load:
ierr = psspy.load_chang(bus_number, load_id, intgar,realar)
See page 728 of the API manual for more info.
I wrote this class to handle loads in PSSE...It originally sent with SQL alchemy so it has some extras which I removed:
class Load():
def __init__(self,busnumber,loadID):
# Initialize the Branch Class Instance Variables to a Default 0; Except for the From,To and Circuit ID
self.bus = Bus(busnumber)
self.busI = busnumber
self.loadID = loadID
self.status = 0
self.Pload = 0.0
self.Qload = 0.0
self.errorList = []
self.init()
def init(self):
# Setup the load from the case
# Check to see if bus exists
busOk = self.bus.init()
if not busOk[0]:
return (False,self.bus.number,"The bus number %d is invalid or does not exist..." % self.bus.number)
if psspy.loddt2(self.bus.number,self.loadID,'TOTAL','ACT')[0] != 0:
return (False,False)
Scomplex = self.check(psspy.loddt2(self.bus.number,self.loadID,'TOTAL','ACT'),'loddt2','ACT') # Grab the S vector/phasor from the power flow case for the load specified at the BUS number
self.Pload = Scomplex.real
self.Qload = Scomplex.imag
self.status = self.check(psspy.lodint(self.bus.number,self.loadID,'STATUS'),'lodint','STATUS') # Grab the Status of the Load
return (True,self.bus.number)
def check(self,tuple,funName,subFun):
# Define Error Messages that should be accesable by the end-user and developer
loddt2 = {
0:'No error; P and Q or CMPVAL returned',
1:'Bus not found; P and Q or CMPVAL unchanged.',
2:'Load not found; P and Q or CMPVAL unchanged.',
3:'Bus type code is not 1, 2 or 3; P and Q or CMPVAL returned.',
4:'Load out-of-service; P and Q or CMPVAL returned.',
5:'Invalid value of STRING1 or STRING2; P and Q or CMPVAL unchanged.'
}
lodint = {
0:'No error; IVAL returned.',
1:'Bus not found; IVAL unchanged.',
2:'Load not found; IVAL unchanged.',
3:'Bus type code is not 1, 2 or 3; IVAL returned.',
4:'Load out-of-service; IVAL returned.',
5:'Invalid value of STRING; IVAL unchanged.'
}
funDic = {
'loddt2':loddt2,
'lodint':lodint
}
# Retrieve the Right Error Message
list = funDic[funName]
msg = list[tuple[0]]
if tuple[0] > 0:
logging.debug("Function Name: %s Sub Function Name: %s Error Message: %s"%(funName,subFun,msg))
return tuple[1]
def setLoad(self,loadP):
self.Pload = loadP
def updateCase(self):
# Setup Defaults
_i = psspy.getdefaultint()
_f = psspy.getdefaultreal()
cDef = psspy.getdefaultchar()
psspy.load_data_3(self.bus.number,self.loadID,[self.status,_i,_i,_i,_i],[self.Pload, self.Qload,_f,_f,_f,_f])
# To String Method
def __repr__(self):
return "%d %s %d %d" %(self.bus.number,self.loadID,self.Pload,self.Qload)
# printf Statement that Dumps information to CMD line...Homeage to C and C++
def printf(self):
print "\n Bus: %d \n Load ID: %s \n MW Value: %d \n MVAR Value: %d \n" % (self.bus.number,self.loadID,self.Pload,self.Qload)
If you call the function named, "updateCase" it will take what ever values are stored in the load object and refresh the PSSE case.

I found this blog post about how to run Python command from PSSE. I don't think that your question has anything to do with ASP.NET though.

I am working on a Python project that includes using Images taken by Fingerprint scanner and processing them. I am currently using ZKTeco ZK8500(ZK9500) that is provided with C SDK library. But i have very little knowledge in C/C++ and to be honest Python is not my strongest language. I am trying to use C SDK via ctypes library in Python but i have some difficulties with that. I am currently testing on Windows, installed SDK from official site. So far my code looks like:

Questions:
I do not understand why i can OpenDevice, can CloseDevice but get Get dev name: -3 c_ubyte(0) 1 when i try to get parameter i get -3- No device connected. Maybe something in my Python declaration or variable types?
How i can get image to file from fingerprint scanner? Code snippets if anybody knows?
I want to read back ASB and other status results in python-escpos. I thought the ._read() method would work but I get a "AttributeError: 'Serial' object has no attribute '_read'" error. I have verified the _read() method is there with inspect.
Any suggestion on how I can read back status's in python-escpos?
Please try specifying the GS a command as a parameter in the query_status() method and calling it.

[Format]
ASCII GS a n
Hex 1D 61 n
Decimal 29 97 n

n = 0 – 255
[Default]
n: different depending on the printers
Please try by specifying 0xFF for n.
query_status(mode)

I am trying to import the snmpSessionBaseClass python module in a script I am running, but I do not have the module installed and I can't seem to find where to download it. Does anyone know the pip or yum command to download and install this module? Thanks!

from snmpSessionBaseClass import add_common_options, get_common_options, verify_host, get_data

The following code needs to be added to a file called snmpSessionBaseClass.py and that file needs to be placed in a directory that is in pythons path.

I have a script that calls a list of linux guests I am trying to tidy up. Here is the code:
#!/usr/bin/python
guests = ['guest1','guest2','guest3','guest*']
def serverCheck(guestList)
for g in guestList:
server = AdminControl.completeObjectName('cell=tstenvironment,node=guest1,name=uatenvironment,type=Server,*')
try:
status = AdminControl.getAttribute(server, 'state')
print g + status
except:
print "Error %s is down." % g
serverCheck(guests)
The problem lies in this line:
server = AdminControl.completeObjectName('cell=Afcutst,node=%s,name=afcuuat1,type=Server,*') % g
How do I use my list to populate the node variable while still being able to pass the info within the parentheses to the AdminControl function?
The argument string itself is the argument to the % operator, not the return value of the function call.
server = AdminControl.completeObjectName(
'cell=Afcutst,node=%s,name=afcuuat1,type=Server,*' % (g,)
)
Peeking into the crystal ball, Python 3.6 will allow you to write
server = AdminControl.completeObjectName(
f'cell=Afcutst,node={g},name=afcuuat1,type=Server,*'
)
embedding the variable directly into a special format string literal.
can you try like this
AdminControl.completeObjectName('cell=tstenvironment,node=%s,name=uatenvironment,type=Server,*'%g)
For more readability I would suggest this and also using the same way to format strings from variables (here I chose str.format)
guests = ['guest1','guest2','guest3','guest*']
def serverCheck(guestList)
name_tpl = 'cell=tstenvironment,node={},name=uatenvironment,type=Server,*'
for g in guestList:
obj_name = name_tpl.format(g)
server = AdminControl.completeObjectName(obj_name)
try:
status = AdminControl.getAttribute(server, 'state')
print '{}: {}'.format(g, status)
except:
print 'Error {} is down'.format(g)
serverCheck(guests)
I am trying to make call for a callback function in python.
I have a dll present at a path say 'dllpath'.
This dll have a callback function stated below:
Function prototype:
ULONG SetByteTotalsCallback(tFNByteTotals pCallback,BYTE interval);
Parameter discription:
tFNByteTotals pCallback: mode-IN, Callback function pointer
BYTE interval:mode-IN, Interval in seconds
Callback Prototype:
void ByteTotalsCallback(ULONGLONG txTotalBytes, ULONGLONG rxTotalBytes );
I want to call the function SetByteTotalsCallback and I want to print the values of txTotalBytes and rxTotalBytes.
I tried with following code:
from ctypes import *
filepath = r"<path to dll>"
gdll = WinDLL(filepath)
tx = c_longlong
rx = c_longlong
pCallback = CFUNCTYPE(tx, rx)
def ByteTotalsCallback(t, r):
try:
print 'Printing tx and rx: '
#print 'Transmitted bytes: ',t[0]
#print 'Received bytes: ',r[0]
#return 0
except:
print 'Error...'
byteTotal_func =pCallback(ByteTotalsCallback)
SetByteTotalsCallback = gdll.SetByteTotalsCallback
try:
print 'Return of SetByteTotals: ',SetByteTotalsCallback(pCallback(ByteTotalsCallback), c_byte(128))
except:
print 'Error found: '
After executing the above code, I observe that the function ByteTotalsCallback is not getting called but SetByteTotalsCallback(pCallback(ByteTotalsCallback), c_byte(128))
got called and returned back successfully.
Can someone help me?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Geet
