ARTIQ DAX Tutorial for QCE24
Setup
The setup consists of two 84HP 3U desktop crates, each hosting power supply and 3 identical sets of modules that are later called "systems":
- Kasli v2.0.2
- DIO SMA v1.4.3 - channels 0-3 configured as outputs
- Urukul AD9910 v1.5.6
- Phaser Baseband (BB) v1.1.2
Therefore, the setup consists of 6 identical systems.
These systems are given consecutive letters from A to F. First crate hosts systems from A to C, second from D to F.
Each system is connected to the individual oscilloscope that is available via ARTIQ NDSP. Oscilloscopes are not identical, but have similar functionalites (Tektronix 4000 Series). Every system is connected to the oscilloscope in the same way:
| Oscilloscope ch. | Module ch. |
|---|---|
| 1 | DIO SMA ch. 0 (output) |
| 2 | Urukul AD9910 ch. 0 |
| 3 | Urukul AD9910 ch. 1 |
| 4 | Phaser BB RF out 0 |
Network
Systems are available under the following addresses:
| System | IP | Host |
|---|---|---|
| A | 192.168.95.213 |

Oscilloscopes
Systems are connected to 6 individual oscilloscopes:
| System | Osc. model | Osc. address |
|---|---|---|
| A | Tektronix MSO4104 | 192.168.95.182 |
| B | Tektronix MDO4104-3 | 192.168.95.142 |
| C | Tektronix MSO4104 | 192.168.95.164 |
| D | Tektronix DPO4104 | 192.168.95.181 |
| E | Tektronix MSO4104 | 192.168.95.165 |
| F | To be selected | - |
Current status
| System | Status | Tested |
|---|---|---|
| A | Flashed, signals not connected | OK |
| B | Flashed, connected | OK |
| C | Flashed, connected | OK |
| D | Flashed, signals not connected | No |
| E | Flashed, signals not connected | No |
| F | Flashed, signals not connected, no oscilloscope | No |
Deployment
deploy command performs deployment of user experiment directories
to the given directory --target-dir.
In target directory 6 subdirectories are created, corresponding to
6 different masters. They are called system_a for setup A etc.
Each of system_<a..f> directories consists of one subdirectory
holding experiment files called repository and device_db.py
file corresponding to a given setup.
repository subdirectory consists of number of subdirectories
for user experiments named by the pattern user_<n>. The number
of such subdirectories depends on --users parameter.
Each system_<m>/repository/user_<n> directory consists of experiment
files copied from experiments/repository and user.py file defining
user_id Python variable

Before running the artiq_session or artiq_run, run the following command from the experiments directory of this repository:
artiq_run --device-db device_db_sim.py dax_setup.py -c DaxSetup -qTo run the artiq_session in sim mode, run the following command from the experiments directory
artiq_session -m=--device-db -m device_db_sim.pyTo run unittest, run the following command at the root of this repository:
pytest
