hi list, I plan to buy a gps module ,the gps module have 1pps pin and uart pin. I will connect the 1pps pin to b205mini “REF” sma port to Disciplin The local clock. And connect uart pin to gpio to read time info. That is ok? Thanks! Best Regards, Charlies _

Never-mind. I found the issue. I forgot to set the 'PC Clock' setting in the sink block. We are back to perfect packet delivery on low sample rates and near perfect packet delivery on high sampling rates. On Wed, Apr 3, 2019 at 3:07 PM Freedman, Michael - 1008 - MITLL < mfreed...@ll.mit.edu> wrot

2019-04-03 Thread Ali Dormiani via USRP-users
Hello everyone, I recently upgraded two of our N310's and our host server from 3.13.1.0 to 3.14.0.0. UHD, GNU Radio (host), FPGA, SDIMG, were all uninstalled, compiled again, and updated/flashed/imaged appropriately. Additionally, nothing in our set up has changed other than the version of UHD.

Dear all, I have some questions about how to trigger RFNOC receiver. I have a module detecting the rising edge of a fixed clock. I used that clock to trigger Tx and Rx modules. Now the transmit RFNOC module is working properly but the receive module gives me non-deterministic m_axis_data_tvalid

Hi, After disconnecting LO cables signal on the daughter-board that imports LOs disappears. So GNU Radio correctly configures distribution of LOs. Also the +/- 90 degree changes happen completely deterministically in given ranges of carrier frequencies. So the question remains open: what is causi

Hi, I don't know what this patch does, but there is not software required under certain circumstances. The reference clock is 200 MHz and there are a few PLLs which are used to generate your LOs. When the PLLs run in interger-N mode (which can be defined in the API, when explicitly setting the

Hi, yes, the result for multiple measurements (start ups of the system) at a single frequency was different by multiples of 90°. We did not investigated the problem any further, but I am quite sure that gnuradio was not synchronizing the channels using the LO-sharing, although it was selected.

Hi all, I'm trying to do calibration of phase offsets between TwinRX channels. Configuration of X310 is following: two TwinRX'es, all sharing LOs from fist channel of the second TwinRX. The same signal is fed to all TwinRX channels through a RF splitter. What is expected is some additional grou
