PyMoDAQ plugin for controlling PiezosystemJena voltage amplifier NV40/3 CLE.
This amplifier is well suited for sub-nm positioning tasks.

The plugin does provide limited support for single-axis and open-loop controller of the same series
as it was not a target application at the time of writing the plugin.

The control library relies on the pyserial module to communicate with the device using Serial process over usb.

Installing the manufacturer's driver for USB interface is required:
