Version 5.0.0

Paths

To provide consistent and reliable access to file locations for capturing and analysis, directories and filenames have been merged into paths where possible.

This applies to both the XRA-31 Command-line Interface and XRA-31 Python Interface.

In practice, the following has changed:

• excentis.xra31.capture.Output.path brings atomicity by replacing filename and directory.

• excentis.xra31.capture.Capture.active_path and captured_path bring well-defined paths that cover more use cases, and replace filename.

• xra31-capture option path replaces filename for consistency.

• xra31-analyse option path replaces filename for consistency.

Python warnings are generated for deprecated functions (warnings — Warning control), and the CLI commands will inform the user of these changes when applicable.

Roll-off Period

The revised OFDM locking procedure no longer requires the roll-off period as an input parameter. As a consequence, add_ofdm() no longer accepts a rolloff_period argument.
