Module Contents

class phoenix6.controls.music_tone.MusicTone(audio_frequency: phoenix6.units.hertz)

Plays a single tone at the user specified frequency.

Parameters:

audio_frequency (hertz) – Sound frequency to play. A value of zero will silence the device. The effective frequency range is 10-20000 Hz. Any nonzero frequency less than 10 Hz will be capped to 10 Hz. Any frequency above 20 kHz will be capped to 20 kHz.

property name: str

Gets the name of this control request.

Returns:

Name of the control request

Return type:

str

property control_info: dict

Gets information about this control request.

Returns:

Dictonary of control parameter names and corresponding applied values

Return type:

dict

update_freq_hz: phoenix6.units.hertz = 100

The period at which this control will update at. This is designated in Hertz, with a minimum of 20 Hz (every 50 ms) and a maximum of 1000 Hz (every 1 ms).

If this field is set to 0 Hz, the control request will be sent immediately as a one-shot frame. This may be useful for advanced applications that require outputs to be synchronized with data acquisition. In this case, we recommend not exceeding 50 ms between control calls.

audio_frequency

Sound frequency to play. A value of zero will silence the device. The effective frequency range is 10-20000 Hz. Any nonzero frequency less than 10 Hz will be capped to 10 Hz. Any frequency above 20 kHz will be capped to 20 kHz.

• Units: Hz

with_audio_frequency(new_audio_frequency: phoenix6.units.hertz) → MusicTone

Modifies this Control Request’s audio_frequency parameter and returns itself for method-chaining and easier to use request API.
