Description

in the low-level communication to TXDevice, the field "TriggerPulseTrainInterval" is interpreted by the firmware as microseconds. This should be changed to "TriggerPulseTrainIntervalUsec" for clarity. Will require matching change in the firmware.

Research direction

Start by locating the low-level communication code that serializes the TriggerPulseTrainInterval field for TXDevice, then identify the matching firmware field. The change is done when the JSON field is named TriggerPulseTrainIntervalUsec consistently in the Python and firmware sides and the communication still works.
