Install
Three ways to run this device. Each one serves its fake backend: no instrument, no simulator install and no upstream checkout.
OpenAI4S (one command)
openai4s lab add labs/sergey12malyshev__owon-power-supply-driverInstalls the device into the OpenAI4S Lab on its fake backend and starts it. First time? See setup below.
Or, in the workbench, open the Lab tab → Market → Install.
Standalone MHS endpoint
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/PKU-YuanGroup/OpenMHS.git && cd OpenMHS
PYTHONPATH=MHS/sdk/src python3 -m mhs serve labs/sergey12malyshev__owon-power-supply-driver --port 7400
# in a second terminal, from the same directory:
PYTHONPATH=MHS/sdk/src python3 -m mhs describe --endpoint http://127.0.0.1:7400Serves the device as an MHS endpoint on port 7400 from an OpenMHS clone (Python 3.10 or later, standard library only); describe prints what it offers.
Any MCP host (Claude Desktop, Cursor, …)

}
}Add this server to the host's MCP configuration and replace /path/to/OpenMHS with the path of your OpenMHS clone. The host starts the server and talks to it on stdin and stdout.
What it does
Measures
voltagecurrentpoweridentityall_parameters
Adjusts
voltage_setpointcurrent_setpointvoltage_limitcurrent_limitoutput_enabled
Actions
reset_config- Reset the instrument to its factory configuration (*RST); it takes no input
output_off- Disable the output (OUTPut OFF); it takes no input and is the declared safe state
Names as the driver declares them. Units, limits and the safety declaration are in the package's REFERENCE.md.
First-time setup
The OpenAI4S workbench with the OpenMHS lab, from a source checkout:
# OpenAI4S workbench with the OpenMHS lab (source checkout)
git clone --recursive https://github.com/PKU-YuanGroup/OpenAI4S.git
cd OpenAI4S && ./setup.sh && source .venv/bin/activate
openai4s lab add labs/sergey12malyshev__owon-power-supply-driver
openai4s serve # open the Lab tabThe standalone endpoint and the MCP server need only an OpenMHS clone and Python 3.10 or later. More in the market's getting-started guide and on the OpenAI4S host page.
