`Stop Compressor` button does not work #95

Closed patzinak closed 7 years ago

patzinak commented 7 years ago

There were no error messages printed anywhere. However, I was able easily to turn off the compressor by directly communicating with the compressor server. To troubleshoot this you can create a dummy setting and try to make sure that you really call it properly.

I did not give it the correct labrad setting to call when it is clicked. Right now the "status" setting is triggered when either 'stop compressor' or 'start compressor' is clicked This can be easily changed in the leiden.py file

edit: see lines 129 and 132 on leiden.py

The compressor still could not be controlled from the GUI. Please check the buttons functionality.

patzinak commented 7 years ago

Checked again, still does not work.

nmGit commented 7 years ago

Try checking this again. I think it works now. 4th time's the charm...

patzinak commented 7 years ago

The buttons didn't work on Saturday. I'll test this again on a good occasion.

patzinak commented 7 years ago

I checked this yesterday and it did not work. Nothing happens when you click the buttons, neither dialog windows pop up nor compressor does anything. I assume the computer in the Leiden room was updated and it runs the proper (master) branch. Implement a button that does something benign and we can start from there.

Does it work now? I used a test setting on the compressor and it worked, I obviously haven't tested the on/off settings at all. The problem was that I was not passing the context to the labrad server.

I'll test this when we are warming, but likely in only in a few days.

I'll close this for now and we can reopen it if what I did doesn't work (unlikely this time).
