configure_sine_generation(daq, device_id, channel_index, *, enable, osc_index=0, osc_frequency=100000000.0, phase=0.0, gains=(0.0, 1.0, 1.0, 0.0), sine_generator_index=0)[source]#

Configures the sine generator output of a specified SG channel.

Configures the sine generator output of a specified channel for generating continuous wave signals without the AWG.

Parameters
  • daq (ziDAQServer) – Instance of a Zurich Instruments API session connected to a Data Server. The device with identifier device_id is assumed to already be connected to this instance.

  • device_id (str) – SHFQC device identifier, e.g. dev12004 or ‘shf-dev12004’.

  • channel_index (int) – Index of the used SG channel.

  • enable (int) – Enables the sine generator output.

  • osc_index (int) – Selects which oscillator to use.

  • osc_frequency (float) – Oscillator frequency used by the sine generator. (default = 100e6)

  • phase (float) – Sets the oscillator phase. (default = 0.0)

  • gains (tuple) – Sets the four amplitudes used for single sideband. generation. default values correspond to upper sideband with a positive oscillator frequency. gains are set in this order: I/sin, I/cos, Q/sin, Q/cos (default = (0.0, 1.0, 1.0, 0.0))

  • sine_generator_index (int) – Selects which sine generator to use on a given channel.

Return type
