QHub.arm(*, deep=True, repetitions: Optional[int] = None, holdoff: Optional[float] = None) → None[source]#

Prepare QHub for triggering the instruments.

This method configures the execution engine of QHub. Optionally, the number of triggers and hold-off time can be set when specified as keyword arguments. If they are not specified, they are not changed.

Note that the QHub is disabled at the end of the hold-off time after sending out the last trigger.

Parameters:

deep – A flag that specifies if a synchronization should be performed between the device and the data server after stopping QHub (default: True).
repetitions (Optional[int]) – If specified, the number of triggers sent over ZSync ports will be set (default: None).
holdoff (Optional[float]) – If specified, the time between repeated triggers sent over ZSync ports will be set. It has a minimum value and a granularity of 100 ns (default: None).

Return type:

None
