class adi.trigger.hrtimer_trig(uri='', trig_name='trigger0')

Bases: context_manager, attribute

High-Resolution Timer Trigger

This class provides an interface for controlling an IIO hrtimer trigger. The trigger must be created first:

• Ensure the iio-trig-hrtimer kernel module is loaded or built-in into the kernel

• Ensure configfs is mounted

• Create the a new trigger with:

  • mkdir /config/iio/triggers/hrtimer/mytrig

• Restart iiod service if relying on a remote iio context

property name

Get the name of the trigger

property sampling_frequency

Get/Set sampling frequency of the trigger

class adi.trigger.sysfs_trig(uri='', trig_name='sysfstrig0')

Bases: context_manager, attribute

Sysfs Trigger

This class provides an interface for controlling an IIO sysfs trigger. The trigger must be created first:

• Ensure the iio-trig-sysfs kernel module is loaded or built-in into the kernel

• Create the a new trigger with:

  • echo 0 > /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio_sysfs_trigger/add_trigger

• Restart iiod service if relying on a remote iio context
