Implementation: Add input validation for instance variables in init to ensure they have valid values before being used in device operations.

This is very bad and very wrong!
self.tc cannot be 0.0, it must be at least equal to 0.1.

Ask❓
This is very bad and very wrong! self.tc cannot be 0.0, it must be at least equal to 0.1.
Answer:
You're absolutely right! Setting self.tc to 0.0 would be problematic because:
- A time constant of 0.0 is physically meaningless for a lock-in amplifier
- It could cause issues in other parts of the code that rely on a valid time constant
- If
self.tcis used in division operations, it could cause division by zero errors
A better error handling approach would be:
def trigger_ready(self) -> None:
"""
Wait for device to stabilize before measurement.
Ensures that at least wait_time_constants * time_constant has passed
since the last setting change.
"""
try:
self.tc = self.get_time_constant()
if self.tc <= 0:
self.tc = 0.1 # Set a minimum safe value
# Wait for device to stabilize
delta_time = (self.wait_time_constants * self.tc) - (time.time() - self.time_ref)
if delta_time > 0.0:
time.sleep(delta_time)
except Exception as e:
print(f"Warning in trigger_ready: {e}")
self.tc = 0.1 # Set a minimum safe valueThis ensures that self.tc is never set to 0.0, which would be an invalid value for a time constant in a lock-in amplifier.

Looks good, please implement this.
