How about a config file?

I think it needs something like:
  A symbolic name (used by top level PYLT code)
  The type of instrument (from the set of supported ones)
  The type of access hardware
  /dev/whatever
  Possibly more info like
    GPIB Address

I'm thinking of something like a line for each instrument.

There is overlap between the type of access hardware and the /dev/whatever  
If you use symbolic links you can derive one from the other.
