Generic native interface functions

The native interface generic_func module contains the bulk of the functional code for the native interfaces of the Cluster so that this code can be reused between instruments. The functions can be parametrized using the FuncRefs class that contains references to functions of the native interfaces parent class.

qblox_instruments.native.generic_func.get_acquisition_status(funcs: FuncRefs, sequencer: int, timeout: int = 0, timeout_poll_res: float = 0.02, check_seq_state: bool = True) → bool

Return acquisition binning completion status of the indexed sequencer. If an invalid sequencer is given, an error is set in system error. If the timeout is set to zero, the function returns the status immediately. If a positive non-zero timeout is set, the function blocks until the acquisition binning completes. If the acquisition hasn’t completed before the timeout expires, a TimeoutError is thrown. Note that when sequencer state checking is enabled, the sequencer state is checked using get_sequencer_status with the selected timeout period first and then the acquisition status is checked with the same timeout period. This means that the total timeout period is two times the set timeout period.

Parameters:

• sequencer (int) – Sequencer index.

• timeout (int) – Timeout in minutes.

• timeout_poll_res (float) – Timeout polling resolution in seconds.

• check_seq_state (bool) – Check if sequencer is done before checking acquisition status.

Returns:

Indicates the acquisition binning completion status (False = uncompleted, True = completed).

Return type:

bool

Raises:

• TimeoutError – Timeout

• NotImplementedError – Functionality not available on this module.

qblox_instruments.native.generic_func.add_acquisitions(funcs: FuncRefs, sequencer: int, acquisitions: Dict) → None

Add all waveforms and weights in JSON compatible dictionary to AWG waveform and aquisition weight lists of indexed sequencer. The dictionary must be structured as follows:

• name: acquisition name.

  • num_bins: number of bins in acquisition.

  • index: optional acquisition index used by the sequencer Q1ASM program to refer to the acquition.

Parameters:

• sequencer (int) – Sequencer index.

• acquisitions (dict) – JSON compatible dictionary with one or more acquisitions.

Raises:

• KeyError – Missing dictionary key in acquisitions.

• NotImplementedError – Functionality not available on this module.

qblox_instruments.native.generic_func.delete_acquisition(funcs: FuncRefs, sequencer: int, name: str = '', all: bool = False) → None

Delete an acquisition specified by name in the acquisition list of indexed sequencer or delete all acquisitions if all is True.

Parameters:

• sequencer (int) – Sequencer index.

• name (str) – Weight name

• all (bool) – All weights

Raises:

NotImplementedError – Functionality not available on this module.

qblox_instruments.native.generic_func.delete_acquisition_data(funcs: FuncRefs, sequencer: int, name: str = '', all: bool = False) → None

Delete data from an acquisition specified by name in the acquisition list of indexed sequencer or delete data in all acquisitions if all is True.

Parameters:

• sequencer (int) – Sequencer index.

• name (str) – Weight name

Raises:

NotImplementedError – Functionality not available on this module.

qblox_instruments.native.generic_func.store_scope_acquisition(funcs: FuncRefs, sequencer: int, name: str) → None

After an acquisition has completed, store the scope acquisition results in the acquisition specified by name of the indexed sequencers. If an invalid sequencer index is given an error is set in system error. To get access to the acquisition results, the sequencer will be stopped when calling this function.

Parameters:

• sequencer (int) – Sequencer index.

• name (str) – Acquisition name.

Raises:

NotImplementedError – Functionality not available on this module.

qblox_instruments.native.generic_func.get_acquisitions(funcs: FuncRefs, sequencer: int) → Dict

Get all acquisitions in acquisition lists of indexed sequencer. The acquisition scope and bin data is normalized to a range of -1.0 to 1.0 taking both the bit widths of the processing path and average count into considaration. For the binned integration results, the integration length is not handled during normalization and therefore these values have to be divided by their respective integration lenghts. The returned dictionary is structured as follows:

• name: acquisition name

  • index: acquisition index used by the sequencer Q1ASM program to refer to the acquisition.

  • acquisition: acquisition dictionary

    • scope: Scope data

      • path0: input path 0

        • data: acquisition samples in a range of 1.0 to -1.0.

        • out-of-range: out-of-range indication for the entire acquisition (False = in-range, True = out-of-range).

        • avg_cnt: number of averages.

      • path1: input path 1

        • data: acquisition samples in a range of 1.0 to -1.0.

        • out-of-range: out-of-range indication for the entire acquisition (False = in-range, True = out-of-range).

        • avg_cnt: number of averages.

    • bins: bin data

      • integration: integration data

        • path_0: input path 0 integration result bin list

        • path_1: input path 1 integration result bin list

      • threshold: threshold result bin list

      • valid: list of valid indications per bin

      • avg_cnt: list of number of averages per bin

Parameters:

sequencer (int) – Sequencer index.

Returns:

Dictionary with acquisitions.

Return type:

dict

Raises:

NotImplementedError – Functionality not available on this module.

qblox_instruments.native.generic_func.set_sequence(funcs: FuncRefs, sequencer: int, sequence: str | Dict[str, Any], validation_enable: bool = True) → None

Set sequencer program, AWG waveforms, acquisition weights and acquisitions from a JSON file or from a dictionary directly. The JSON file or dictionary need to apply the schema specified by QCM_SEQUENCE_JSON_SCHEMA, QRM_SEQUENCE_JSON_SCHEMA, WAVE_JSON_SCHEMA and ACQ_JSON_SCHEMA.

Parameters:

• sequencer (int) – Sequencer index.

• sequence (Union[str, Dict[str, Any]]) – Path to sequence file or dictionary.

• validation_enable (bool) – Enable JSON schema validation on sequence.

Raises:

JsonSchemaValueException – Invalid JSON object.
