Delay Generators

hardware_control.gui.controls.DelayGenerator module

class hardware_control.gui.controls.DelayGenerator.DelayChannelWidget(app, instrument_name: str, channel: str)

Bases: QWidget

A Qt-widget that implements controls for a single channel of a delay generator.

Used together with DelayGenerator.

Parameters:

main_widget (DelayGenerator) – The main widget in which the objects is used
channel (str) – The channel the object controls. Normally A, B, C, or D, but AB and CD are also allowed for combined channels that, for example, exist in the SRS DG533 instrument.

set_output_level_hook(value): Only allow input for ‘High Level’ and ‘Output Offset’ when in ‘Var’ output mode.

update_delay(delay): When updating a channel’s time delay, send both the relative channel and the delay.

update_relative_channel(relative_channel): When updating the relative channel, send both the relative channel and the delay.

class hardware_control.gui.controls.DelayGenerator.DelayGenerator(app, instrument_name: str, widget_name: str = 'Delay Generator')

Bases: QGroupBox

A GUI for delay generators.

This implements many front panel functions of an SRS DG535 and also contains some elements that are unique to this instrument.
