Port: This command shall configure one or more of the ports on the specified 4391A output
card.
To set the Port parameters use the bitcode_port command and specify the stream (1-4) and the
blanking type. Users can enable/disable the stream using the --enable false (off) or true (on).
Syntax
bitcode_port --stream STREAM --blanking <none|zeroes|ones> --enable <true|false> SLOT [PORTLIST]
o stream: Bit generation stream to assign to the specified port(s). If not specified, the
assigned stream shall remain unchanged. If the specified stream is not an integer between
1 and 4, the following error message shall be displayed: “Stream must be an integer
between 1 and 4”.
o blanking: Blanking mode for the specified port(s). Must be “none”, “zeroes”, or “ones”.
If not specified, the blanking mode shall remain unchanged. If not specified, the enable
state(s) shall remain unchanged. If the specified blanking mode is not “none”, “zeroes”,
or “ones”, the following error message shall be displayed: “Blanking must be ‘none’,
‘zeroes’, or ‘ones’”
o enable: Enables or disables the specified port(s). If disabled, an output is electrically
isolated from its associated bit generator output. If the specified enable state is not “true”
or “false” the following error message shall be displayed: “Enable must be true or false”
o SLOT: Slot number of the 4391A output card to be configured. SLOT must be an
integer between 1 and 6.
o PORTLIST: Port number(s) to configure. PORTLIST must be a comma-delimited list of
ports, each of which is an integer between 1 and 4. If not specified, the command shall
apply to all ports on the 4391A output card. If only 1 port is specified, no comma is
necessary. If the port list is not a comma-delimited list of integers between 1 and 4 the
following error message shall be displayed: “Port list must be a comma-delimited list of
integers between 1 and 4”
The following example assigns stream 3 to ports 1 and 3 on the card in slot 5.
