channel_names

property InstroDAQ.channel_names: tuple[str, ...]

Return an insertion-ordered snapshot of all published channel names.

Names are complete after one full daemon iteration: {name}.loop_time publishes every iteration, so call get_channel(“loop_time”, wait_for_new_samples=True) then read channel_names to ensure the complete set has arrived.

Raises:

RuntimeError – No background buffer; start() was not called.
