Scopy v2.0.0-beta-rc1

Scopy v2.0.0-beta-rc1 marks the first release of the redesigned Scopy application, introducing a completely new infrastructure and interaction mechanism for any IIO device through generic instruments.
While retaining the core functionality of Scopy v1 - support for ADALM2000 devices - this update significantly expands its capabilities.

ADI Harmonic Design style: Scopy has a new UI styling mechanism and provides three default themes: Scopy, Harmonic dark and Harmonic light.

Multiple device support: connect to multiple devices from the same Scopy session.

Scopy is now structured in plugins which act as intermediaries, allowing users to control and interact with devices in a way that’s intuitive and easy to understand.

• Generic plugins offer basic commands and actions that work across a wide range of devices.
• Device-specific plugins are tailored to a particular device, enabling users to access its unique features and functions.

General IIO plugins

• ADC Plugin - Tool for generic IIO ADC visualization and control
• DAC plugin - Tool for generic IIO DAC control
• Datalogger - Use IIO raw and scale attributes to plot and save data
• Debugger - IIO context explorer tool
• Register Map - Register map of connected device with detailed register table for available XML templates

Application Specific plugins

• ADALM2000 plugin - Implements ADALM2000 instruments - Oscilloscope, Spectrum Analyzer, Voltmeter, Network Analyzer, Signal Generator, Logic Analyzer, Pattern Generator, Digital I/O
• AD-SWIOT1L-SL - Adds functionality specific to AD-SWIOT1L-SL board
• AD-PQMON-SL - Adds functionality specific to AD-PQMON-SL board
