return float(response[:-2]) # strip response command readback
ValueError: could not convert string to float: 'p\t\x02\x02+jS~450.00'

Blanc

return float(response[:-2]) # strip response command readback
ValueError: could not convert string to float: '200~\x02\x02\x02+jS~450.00'

Blanc

return float(response[:-2]) # strip response command readback
ValueError: could not convert string to float: 'ML\t\x02\x02\x1bjS~0.00'

This has been affecting the jacketed reactors, which use IKA overhead stirrers.

Adams is 1.4.006 and Blanc is 1.4.005

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by locating the Python code that parses IKA overhead-stirrer replies and compare the malformed responses from Adams 1.4.006 and Blanc 1.4.005 with valid replies. Done means intermittent readbacks no longer produce conversion errors for the jacketed-reactor hardware.
