Each issue appears as a row in the table and includes the following fields:
The following items are known issues in WTM and/or the WTS Software 1.4 and 1.4.1.
| ID | Known Issue | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 677718 | In WTM, the Uninstall from TestStand menu option is grayed out in the context menu. If you install a plugin type source code into TestStand, you cannot uninstall it using the Uninstall from TestStand menu option as it is grayed out in the context menu. Workaround: Select Uninstall from the menu bar to uninstall the plugin.
| |||||
| 644173 | In WTM, some error messages do not clearly state the cause of failure for test sequence execution. During the execution of test sequences, some error messages are misleading and do not clearly state the real cause for execution failure. Some of these cases are listed below.
| |||||
| 648781 | In the WTM Plugin Manager, the WTM plugin version number is incorrectly incremented. In some cases, the plugin version number is not incremented correctly if the Plugin Manager is instantiated more than once. The Plugin Manager has a local version of the plugin database and when instantiated multiple times, the local versions may become out of sync. Workaround: Avoid instantiating multiple versions of the Plugin Manager.
| |||||
| 527869 | WTM only allows installation in the default installation path. The WTM installer provides the option to change the installation path from the suggested location. However, if you select a non-default location, WTM no longer works as expected. Workaround: Do not change the default WTM installation path.
| |||||
| 693836 | In WTS Software, the latest version of QSPR is not supported. The following changes to the latest version of the Qualcomm Sequence Profiling Resource tool (QSPR) results in incompatibility with WTS 1.4.1.
| |||||
| 689967 | WTS Software may fail to start up if the WTS Instrument Software License for Qualcomm Connectivity Interface Support is activated without an NI-RFmx WLAN license. The WTS Instrument Software License for Qualcomm Connectivity Interface Support also requires a valid NI-RFmx WLAN license. You must purchase and activate this license separately. Failure to activate the license can cause WTS Software to report errors at startup and not operate as expected. Workaround: Ensure you purchase and activate the NI-RFmx WLAN license.
| |||||
| 675405 | In WTS Software, the instrument is unresponsive after sending a misformatted string using raw sockets. The string must be sent using one of the following ways:
Workaround: Use the same pling at the beginning and end of the strings. For example:
| |||||
| 675813 | In WTS Software, the generation state does not update in the UI when using finite generation. When using finite generation, the generation state status remains on after the generation has finished. The timing chart shows the correct state of the generation. Workaround:You must manually set the generation state to OFF.
| |||||
| 675972 | In WTS Software, executing sequence commands on the PXIe-5840 can make the instrument unresponsive. The PXIe-5840 does not support sequence mode, and accidentally sending any sequence commands can make the instrument unresponsive as some of the internal errors are not handled. Workaround: Do not send sequence commands. If you send sequence commands, restart WTS Software.
| |||||
| 675973 | In WTS Software, WLAN noise compensation does not work correctly with parallel SISO. When using WLAN noise compensation, each chain is expected to use the specific noise compensation file. In the parallel SISO case, these are not properly aligned. Workaround: Do not enable noise compensation when using parallel SISO.
| |||||
| 677407 | In WTS Software, the PXIe-5840 has a high LO leakage that causes measurement degradation when using Bluetooth. When using Bluetooth with the PXIe-5840, the LO leakage is strong enough to degrade the measurements. The numbers may be fine for production test, but for characterization they may not be suitable. Workaround: Contact your NI representative to request a fix.
| |||||
| 679188 | In WTS Software, auto broadcasting might not work as expected on the WTS-01, WTS-04, and WTS-05. When using the auto broadcasting feature on the WTS-01, WTS-04, or the WTS-05, clients might be joined across different switch banks when using the same broadcasting context. Since the RF switch used in the WTS does not support this, only one of the switch banks outputs the RF signal. Workaround: When you create a broadcasting context, ensure to only add clients which use an RF port on the same switch bank.
| |||||
| 679212 | In WTS Software, auto broadcasting might fail during the first few signal generations. When executing scenarios with auto broadcasting enabled, clients might not be joined or might throw an error during the first one to two signal generations, depending on how the signal is generated. This is related to the first time execution speed of some commands after the clients are initially joined by calling the SYSTem:RFSG:CONCurrency:TESTrun Start command, and also depends on the configured join time. Workaround: Perform either of the following options as a workaround.
| |||||
| 677464 | In WTS Software, the WTS Instrument Interface terminates when the software restarts or is shutdown. The WTS Instrument Interface requires a data connection to the WTS Software. When the connection to the WTS Software is lost, either because the instrument restarts or the software is terminated, all connected local and remote instances of the WTS Instrument Interface are terminated. Workaround: Disconnect all instances of the WTS Instrument Interface before issuing a restart command.
| |||||
| 651101 | WTS Software does not work with other regional settings other than English-US. SCPI and VISA support only using a period (.) as a decimal point and comma (,) to separate parameters and lists. WTS Software malfunctions and becomes unusable if you use any other settings. Workaround: Ensure you are using (.) as the decimal symbol value, and (,) as the list separator value in Regional Settings»Additional Settings.
| |||||
| 583918 | In WTS Software, the WTS scheduling chart displays the signal analyzer as active when it waits for a trigger. The signal analyzer is active when waiting for a trigger, and you cannot use it for anything else during that time. Workaround: N/A
