We present steps towards the experimental realization of an error correction algorithm in a shuttling-based trapped-ion quantum processor. Ions are stored in a segmented linear Paul trap with one static laser interaction zone (LIZ). Addressed single- and two-qubit gate operations are performed by selectively transporting ions into the LIZ. The qubit register can be reconfigured by splitting, merging [1], and swapping [2] of ion crystals. Using this setup, we have previously prepared a four-qubit GHZ state [3], and used entangled ion pairs to measure magnetic field differences with a sensitivity of 12 pT / √Hz [4]. Current work aims at implementing a topological error correction circuit [5]. We measure stabilizer operators on four data qubits using an additional ancilla and flag qubit [6]. Alongside the latest results we discuss our efforts to maintain the required degree of qubit coherence.
