Using ADS Design Environment Functionality in Python

A Python script running outside ADS can access functionality of the ADS Design Environment.

from keysight.ads import de

de.open_workspace(...)

To access keysight.ads.de functionality, use any one of these approaches:

1. Use the Python interpreter in $HPEESOF_DIR/tools/python.

2. Use a virtual environment. See How to Set Up a Python Virtual Environment.

3. Add $HPEESOF_DIR/tools/python/packages onto your Python’s sys.path.

Set the environment variable HPEESOF_DIR to point to your ADS installation prior to using the keysight.ads.de package.
