   .. tab:: Arguments
   
   
      Bold arguments are mandatory. For more information on the listed arguments refer to the class             documentation: :py:class:`herosdevices.hardware.toptica.dlcpro.TAPro` If parameters appear in this             list but not in the class definition, please recursively check the linked base classes for the             definition of the parameter.

         * - Argument
           - Type
           - Default Value
           - Description
         * - **address**
           - **<class 'str'>**
           - 
           - IP address of the laser driver. 
         * - **frequency**
           - **<class 'float'>**
           - 
           - Frequency the laser is running on in Hz. Used for interfacing with atomiq. Can be an approximate value if you don't plan to use this feature. 
         * - lock_option
           - <class 'bool'>
           - False
           - If the laser has the lock option installed.
         * - additional_execs
           - dict | None
           - None
           - A dictionary of additional execution commands. The keys are the names of the methods added to the class, the values are arguments for :py:class:`herosdevices.hardware.toptica.lasersdk.attach_laser_sdk_exec_method`. ``{laser_num}`` can be used in the ``command`` string as a placeholder for the laser number specified when initializing the laser source. 
         * - power
           - float | None
           - None
           - Output power of the laser in W. When ``None`` (default), the ``amp_output_power`` PD is used 
         * - laser_num
           - <class 'int'>
           - 1
           - Number of the laser in a single dlcpro. Relevant for the dual or quad laser DLC options.
         * - observables
           - dict | None
           - None
           - A set of attributes (like ``self.system_health``) that are emitted with the ``observable_data`` HEROS event. If None, the default observables as defined in ``self._default_observables`` (which are typically all defined query attributes) are used.
