5 years ago @hasali92 . This is a duplicate of https://github.com/DiCarloLab-Delft/QuSurf-IssueTracker/issues/145 . Whenever reporting issues with ZI hardware it is useful to look if an issue already exists in the QuSurf issue tracker.
Error report and solution :
A problem: an error during an overnight run >> it complains that ZI-HDAWG is not found i.e. disconnected.
Indeed, I did not find HDAWG on LABone website, http://127.0.0.1:8006/
Solutions I tried:
Step 1: i did power cycle the ZI_HDWG (reset: off and on)
Step 2: Reload the setting of HAWG >> by running this code below:
HDAWG
ts=None
reload(ZI_HDAWG8.zs)
reload(ZI_HDAWG8)
AWG8_8066.close()
del station.components['AWG8_8066']
AWG8_8066 = ZI_HDAWG8.ZI_HDAWG8('AWG8_8066', device='dev8066')
station.add_component(AWG8_8066, update_snapshot=False)
AWG8_8066.cfg_codeword_protocol('microwave')

Step 3: Calibrate the DOI >> open this link
http://localhost:8888/tree/iPython-Notebooks/Electronics_Design
and then open AWG8_V4_DIO_Calibration. Change the instrument code and choose the control mode. Then, run all the cells. It chooses the right setting i.e. delay time for DIO … etc.
Result:
HDAWG is back and I can communicate with it.
However, the problem came back a day after and I did power cycle the HDAWG and did the steps above. It worked perfectly for 2 hours, but the problem came back again.
Current situation:
I couldn't run a successful overnight run.
