set_frontend

Configure the Analog front-end settings of the Moku when in Multi-Instrument Mode.

Setting the bandwidth is only available on Moku:Pro. Read about [how to select the bandwidth for your application](../README.md#bandwidth)

When in Multi-Instrument Mode, the instruments themselves cannot configure the front-end settings of the Moku. For example, the Oscilloscope instrument is no longer in control of the input attenuation/range, as that input may be shared by multiple instruments.

When in Multi-Instrument Mode, the user must use this set_frontend function rather than the ones "typically" found in the namespaces of individual instruments.

Make Connections First

You must connect an Input (i.e. ADC) to an instrument before configuring its settings. See set_connections for details of making the connection.
