Sequence time for jump table boards #49

Open pomalley opened 9 years ago

pomalley commented 9 years ago

In the FPGA server, there are calls to the figure out the sequence time from the memory sequence. This no longer applies for the jump table boards. I think the sequence time is needed for figuring out what the timeout should be (?). For the JT boards we can't know the sequence time even in principle (I guess the JT's aren't Turing complete but we've got a halting problem nonetheless).

Thoughts on this?

Woof.

My gut says make the sequence time an input argument to run_sequence. It's kind of silly that the fpga server computes that at all.
