Claim the ownership of Moku

Declare ownership of the Moku and retrieve a client key

This is commonly the first operation when connecting to a Moku. It can be used to check whether someone else owns the device, take ownership of it, and retrieve a client key. This function is called *implicitly* from most wrappers when the instrument object is first created.

Parameters

force_connect bool

Claim ownership even if the device is already owned

default: true

allowed values:true, false

ignore_busy bool

Ignore the state of instrument including any in progress data logging sessions and continue with the deployment

default: false

allowed values:true, false

persist_state bool

When true, tries to retain the existing state of the instrument (if available)

default: false

allowed values:true, false

REST API Only

This operation is called implicitly from Python and MATLAB libraries when the instrument objects are created. The user only needs to call this themselves if they're using the REST API directly. Refer to the REST Getting Started Guide for more information.
