set_acquisition_mode

Configures acquisition mode to determine how statistics, histograms and output signals are computed.

The acquisition mode of the Time & Frequency Analyzer is the acquisition of intervals, which therefore dictates how the instrument collects interval data

Parameters

mode string

Acquisition mode

default: Continuous

allowed values:Continuous ,Windowed, Gated

gate_source string required

Acquisition channel

allowed values:

Moku:Lab	ChannelA, ChannelB, Input1, Input2, Output1, Output2, External
Moku:Go	ChannelA, ChannelB, Input1, Input2, Output1, Output2
Moku:Pro	ChannelA, ChannelB, ChannelC, ChannelD, Input1, Input2, Input3, Input4, Output1, Output2, Output3, Output4, External

gate_threshold number required

Acquisition threshold

window_length number required

Window length

strict boolean

Disable all implicit conversions and coercions.

default: true

Windowed acquisition

Windowed acquisition counts events within each window period, and resets at the end of each window period. Windowed proves a balance of averaging for noise reduction and the ability to respond when the signal changes.

Continuous acquisition

Events are being registered continuously during intervals.

Gated acquisition

Similar to windowed acquisition, statistics, count output and histogram counts are reset at the end of each gate period. In gated acquisition mode, the beginning of the acquisition period is triggered by the gate input signal. The gate input source can be any of the Moku device input channels, or by external trigger (if available).
