The top level aliases such as qcodes.Station and qcodes.Measurement are deprecated and emit a warning at runtime. They are also hidden from type checkers on purpose, so every use was reported as an unresolved attribute. Import the names from their submodules, which is what the deprecation warning asks for, and drop the qcodes alias where nothing else used it.
Infiniium was renamed to KeysightInfiniium and WaveformGenerator_33XXX to Keysight33xxx, and the deprecated aliases have since been removed, so Example Measurements with Real Instruments failed at its import cell. Use KeysightInfiniium and the model specific Keysight33522B, which is the instrument the example actually connects to and which the base classes tell you to use in preference to themselves. The DPO 72004C notebook imported TekronixDPOWaveform, missing a t. Note that the same misspelling appears in a docstring in DPO7200xx.py. Correcting the DPO import uncovered that the notebook attaches a waveform source straight to the instrument, while the driver declares the parent as a channel. The surrounding text already presents this as future work, so record that on the line rather than widening the driver's annotation.
The drivers_api docs present qcodes.instrument_drivers.<vendor> as the public module, and the vendor packages re-export their drivers, so the examples should not reach into the module that happens to define a class. Most notebooks already did this. Only SR830, TektronixDPOWaveform and a commented Weinschel8320 line still reached deeper, and all three names are re-exported. Verified by importing each name from the package before rewriting.
The classes were renamed from Tekronix to Tektronix in 0.45.0, but this cross reference in the TektronixDPOWaveformFormat docstring was missed and now points at a class that does not exist. The remaining occurrences are in the 0.45.0 changelog, which documents that rename and so refers to the old names on purpose.
qcodes.measure and qcodes.plots were split out into the qcodes_loop package in 0.38.0, and the deprecated aliases have since been removed, so both notebooks raised ModuleNotFoundError on their import cell. Import from qcodes_loop and say in the notebook that this needs the loop extra, which the docs extra already pulls in.
Sequence.plotSequence no longer exists in broadbean, the helper is now broadbean.plotting.plotter. makeSEQXFileFromForgedSequence was renamed to make_SEQX_from_forged_sequence when the driver moved from camelCase to snake case; the signature is otherwise unchanged. Both calls raised AttributeError. Correcting the second name uncovered that the channel mapping does not match the parameter type. The driver takes a Mapping[str | int, int] and the key type of a Mapping is invariant, so a dict[str, int] is not one. Annotate the notebook variable and say why.
