Get device names using Niscope in Python

Hi,

 

Can anybody help me with the following. In python I am using 2 libraries: nidaqmx and niscope. With nidaqmx it is possible to obtain the device names of all connected devices that use nidaqmx. But I can not find any information on how this can be done for instruments that us the niscope library. I am trying to obtain the name (alias) of pxi 5922, which you can get through NIMAX. Anybody any idea how to obtain it via python. Thanks in advance.

I recommend using the nisyscfg-python library.

It can be used to find any NI device on the system.
