How to Add New Instrument interface

I want to connect BD BACT FX40 and Sysmex XP 300 to senaite lims. Both instruments don’t have interface that support it in senaite lims. How can I add connect the above instrument to senaite lims to automatically pull results from them to the senaite lims?

Easiest way is to start with senaite.instruments add-on and modify it by adding your instrument type to the list of instruments then modify the parser as necessary to handle the output from your instrument.

I’m fairly novice at Plone/Senaite code but was able to get this to work for my instrument type, which is set to output Agilent GC/MS Enviroquant CSV data files. I’ll need to do this again soon to handle Varian GC/MS data importation.
