# AMD SMI Python API reference
2024-04-15 10:16:39 -07:00
2024-10-02 14:42:34 -04:00
The AMD SMI Python interface provides a convenient way to interact with AMD
hardware through a simple and accessible API. Compatible with Python 3.6 and
higher, this library requires the AMD driver to be loaded for initialization --
review the [prerequisites ](#install_reqs ).

#### read
Description: Reads events on the given device. When event is caught, device handle, message and event type are returned. Reading events stops when timestamp passes without event reading.
Input parameters:
* `timestamp` number of milliseconds to wait for an event to occur. If event does not happen monitoring is finished
* `num_elem` number of events. This is optional parameter. Default value is 10.
#### stop

automatically using `with` statement, like in the examples below. This should be called either manually or automatically for every created AmdSmiEventReader object.
Input parameters: `None`
Example with manual cleanup of AmdSmiEventReader:
``` python
try :
devices = amdsmi_get_processor_handles ( )
