PyRF Open Application Development Framework with Source Code and Examples

Release v2.6.3

• Major updates in software source code
• Firmware fixed for trigger engine which does not work in all previous v2.6.x releases
• Minor update in the Programmer’s Guide

Releases v2.6.2 to v2.6.0

• FIRMWARE UPDATES
• Fixed packet count counter in the VRT first header word (a counter incremental issue, no packets were dropped)
• CLI software update with minor fixes
• Fixed frequency shift (offset) value returned in the VRT digitizer packet
• Reference Lock, Sample Loss and Data Valid indicators are enabled in the VRT trailer of the IF data packet
• Added Stream commands
• New stream start ID bit and context field for Extension context packet class 0×90000004
• New :SYSTem:CAPTure:MODE? which returns the current capture mode
• SPPacket value is limited to be a multiple of 16 only with range within 128 to (2^16 – 16) inclusive
• :SYSTem:FLUSh can now be used as needed to clear internal WSA data buffer (no longer limited to once per connection)
• For MatLab example source, the new addition “wsaSendSCPICommand.cpp” function allows users to interface to WSA4000 directly with SCPI commands from MatLab. All previously provided sweep, get and set “*.cpp” files in the ‘wsa-matlab-api’ folder are, consequently, no longer needed and are removed in this release package
• New updated WSA4000-108 documents and added the Quick Start guide to the documentation folder

• Updated the reference level table with more data points in firmware.

• Significant throughput performance improvements in firmware
• FIRMWARE FIXES
• Reference Level value returned in the VRT Context packets for some frequencies.
• Fixed NTP time configuration through web-administration to prevent WSA lock-up when the wrong NTP IP is entered
• Removed the ‘dB’ unit in the IF gain query returned string
• Changed IF gain default in non-sweep mode to be 0 dB to be consistent with that of sweep mode
• Changed decimation value of ’0′ to be ’1′, which is equivalent to decimation off
• Changed antenna port default value from 2 to 1
• Fixed frequency offset returned value in the digitizer context packet when negative frequency shift values were used
• Deprecated :SWEep:FLUSh and replaced it with :SYSTem:FLUSh
• Throughput performance improvement in firmware
• Added optional ID value for :SWEEP:LIST:START [ID] command and VRT Extension Context Packet to carry this ID information when sweep start is issued (refer to page 23 of the Programmer’s Guide v2.5)
• Fixes in CLI and API
• Update software package to correspond to this change and some minor fixes
• Functions’ name has been changed in MatLab scripts, minor fixes in MatLab and dded documentation to the source code

• Firmware fixes pertaining system lock, sweep flush and sweep frequency check
• Major CLI and APIs fixes and updates to work with the sweep feature

• Embedded OS firmware fix pertaining to user session control
• Minor CLI and MATLAB API software fixes
• CLI software fixes pertaining to data capture
• Sweep capture control supporting a single configuration list
• Streaming
• Sending of VRT context packets from the WSA when changes in any of the configuration settings applied to the WSA4000
• System lock session control capability

• External or internal PLL Reference clock selection

• Decimation NCO frequency shift feature
• Level trigger feature
• VRT IQ payload data format fix

• VRT packet timestamping
• Time configuration via the web administration console with support for manual setting, setting to PC time or setting via NTP servers
• IP configuration via the web administration console with support for static or dynamic IP
• Factory reset to dynamic IP

• Decimation (without NCO)
• Maximum sample capture increased to 32M from 128K

• Remote upgrade
