Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add senseca-pro --env SENSECA_PORT=your-value --env SENSECA_PIN=your-value --env SENSECA_ALLOW_WRITE=your-value -- uvx mcp-server-senseca-pro

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

        "SENSECA_ALLOW_WRITE": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "senseca-pro": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-server-senseca-pro"
      ],
      "env": {
        "SENSECA_PORT": "your-value",
        "SENSECA_PIN": "your-value",
        "SENSECA_ALLOW_WRITE": "your-value"
      }
    }

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

Values you fill in

SENSECA_PORT env
Serial port of the instrument, e.g. /dev/ttyACM0 or COM3. Auto-detected if not set.
SENSECA_PIN secret env
Instrument PIN, only needed if its protected mode is enabled
SENSECA_ALLOW_WRITE env
Set to 1 to enable tools that change instrument settings (clock, location labels)

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

What it can do

Runs on your computer; the tool list appears in your AI app after you install it.

Common questions

Is Senseca PRO thermometer safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: SENSECA_PIN

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.1.1) reached the registry 11 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Python (uv) on your computer.

What can I use instead?

mcp-server-senseca-pro

An MCP server that lets AI assistants read live measurements from a Senseca PRO 111 / PRO 115 handheld Pt100 thermometer connected via USB.

Unofficial project, not affiliated with or endorsed by Senseca.

Tested with a PRO 111, firmware V1.4.3.0, interface protocol V1.0.0.1.

Tools

Tool	Description
`read_temperature`	Current temperature with unit (°C/°F/K, as set on the instrument) and UTC timestamp
`read_resistance`	Current Pt100 resistance in ohm
`sample_temperature`	Readings over a period (max 600 s, interval ≥ 0.5 s) with min/max/mean/stdev
`get_device_info`	Model, serial number, firmware, instrument clock, battery level

With --allow-write two more tools are available:

Tool	Description
`set_device_clock`	Set the instrument clock (default: this computer's time)
`set_location_name`	Rename one of the 20 location labels

The server cannot change calibration or adjustment data; the instrument does not offer that over its serial interface.

Requirements

Python ≥ 3.10 and uv
The instrument switched on and connected via USB-C. On the PRO 115 set *Settings → USB mode* to COM interface.
Linux: your user must be in the dialout group (sudo usermod -aG dialout $USER, then log in again).
Windows / macOS: no extra setup; the port shows up as COMx or /dev/cu.usbmodem….

Configuration

Claude Code

claude mcp add senseca-pro -- uvx mcp-server-senseca-pro

Claude Desktop and other clients

"mcpServers": { "senseca-pro": { "command": "uvx", "args": ["mcp-server-senseca-pro"] } } }

Options

Option	Environment variable	Default
`--port PORT`	`SENSECA_PORT`	auto-detect
`--allow-write`	`SENSECA_ALLOW_WRITE=1`	off
`--log-level LEVEL`	`SENSECA_LOG_LEVEL`	`WARNING`
—	`SENSECA_PIN`	none; needed only if the instrument's protected mode is on

Auto-detection looks for USB ID 0483:5740 and only accepts a port whose device reports manufacturer senseca. If several instruments are connected, set the port explicitly; on Linux prefer the stable /dev/serial/by-id/… path.

Only one program can use the serial port at a time. Close ProXware or terminal programs while the server is running.

Measurement notes

Instrument accuracy: ±0.05 °C or ±0.06 % of reading (whichever is higher) ±1 digit, probe not included.
The USB port is not galvanically isolated. With a probe touching a grounded medium, the USB connection can shift the reading. Compare readings with and without USB, and use a USB isolator if they differ (see the instrument manual, section 7.2).

Development

uv sync

uv run pytest # tests use a simulated instrument npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector uv run mcp-server-senseca-pro # try the tools interactively

To check a real instrument, connect it and run:

uv run python scripts/hardware_test.py               # read-only checks, no interaction

uv run python scripts/hardware_test.py --reconnect # also unplug/replug USB when asked

The script only sends read commands. See --help for the PIN test.

The serial protocol is described in docs/protocol.md.
