Release Notes for Nanonis Tramea V5 Software

New advanced features in the Lock-In module (option to generate an output signal in sync with a frequency generator and option to use the demodulators as configurable filters for any signal)
Fix for Outputs channels of SC5 #2/#3 or SO5
Fix for high RT CPU load in certain systems which might create connection issues (especially important for users of older RC5 with NI PXIe-8115 Real-Time Controllers, where the CPU of the RT system could easily overload)
Performance improvements for some TCP Programming Interface functions
TCP Programming Interface changed to allow multiple connections, each of them executing the commands serially. To execute commands in parallel, use multiple connections.
Some minor changes

Major update to the High-Speed Sweep module, now allowing to sweep 2 signals (2D sweeps), and repeat the sweep N times. Data can be exported into .dat or HDF.
Various other fixes and improvements.

New Fast Spectroscopy module for measurements up to 1 MS/s
Lock-in: can now demodulate all FPGA signals. Possible application: tandem demodulation (demodulate the output of another demodulator)
Lock-in demodulators can be used as generic low-pass filters by setting harmonic to 0

Full Support for up to 3 SC5 and 2 SO5 (maximum of 4 devices total), i.e. the additional devices are supported in hrDAC (only SC5), Lock-in, Function Generator, High-Resolution Oscilloscope.
Output/Input modules: added custom views, which lets the user define groups of up to 8 outputs/inputs to be visible in addition to the standard view of channels per device.
Several other fixes and improvements

Support for up to 3 SC5's, providing up to 24 output and 24 input channels
Script module: improved user interface with easier access to commands and drag&drop capability
3D Sweeper: options to control the signals at the end of sweep, and optional alternate slew rates for ramping
Fixes a bug that could lead to a "Memory is full" error when using the 3D Sweeper
Performance optimizations in the software. When operating the software for a long time software operation could become sluggish. This update should improve the performance.
Several other fixes and improvements

Multi-Channel Lock-In: new module which provides up to 8 frequency generators and modulators, and 8 dual phase demodulators. Each modulator and each demodulator can use any frequency generator as reference
Magnet Control: new module to control the magnetic field of magnet control instruments
Data Logger: new module to continuously save data to disk at RT speed
Script module: new features like the option to wait for a digital line or edge, and to set voltages based on a lookup table
History graph: new auto-saving routine
Support for new generation of RC5 controller (NI PXIe-8840 RT)
Note: after installing the RT-Upgrade required for this version, no previous versions can be installed
Various fixes and minor improvements

Lock-In: all new Lock-in module with configurable filters (high-pass, low-pass, sync) and delay compensation
Scripting Tool: new module allowing the execution of user-defined scripts directly on the Real-time engine
Programming Interface: some new functions added
Various minor improvements
