Using Tango Groups

This example uses PyTangoGroup to read the status of all devices in a Device Server

import PyTango

server_name = 'VacuumController/AssemblyArea'
group = PyTango.Group(server_name)
devs = [d for d in PyTango.Database().get_device_class_list(server_name) if '/' in d and 'dserver' not in d]
for d in devs:
    group.add(d)

answers = group.command_inout('Status',[])
for reply in answers:
    print 'Device %s Status is:' % reply.dev_name()
    print reply.get_data()
