Dear users, I'm new to Ettus SDR therefor I might be missing some basic knowledge. However I've read that in order to increase RX capture performance I should fiddle with recv_frame_size and num_recv_frames. While increasing the latter parameter gives good results, increasing recv_frame_size gi

[USRP-users] NOC Shell config ports

Hey The last few days I was working on a multi-port rfnoc block (2 inputs, 2 outputs). By analyzing the ADD/SUB (noc_block_addsub.v) and the NOC Shell modules, I understood how packet handling works. However, I'm not quite sure why the control ports (especially the control sink - set_data, set_

Hi Samuel, 1) Block ports are considered independent of each other. That is why each one has dedicated sink/source sample streams, settings register bus, noc shell registers, etc. 2) Set INPUT_PORTS and OUTPUT_PORTS to the number of each you want (up to 16 per direction). See noc_block_ddc.v and n

Hi Robert, Can you try adding the NIC configuration to /root/.uhd/uhd.conf instead of /etc/uhd/uhd.conf ? You'll need to run your UHD applications as root as well. You will also need to change the line: dpdk-driver=/usr/local/lib/dpdk-pmds/ to be: dpdk-driver=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ You'll

Hi Paul, The rfnoc-devel branch is deprecated. You should build off the master branch or UHD-3.13 branch with the cmake flag "-DENABLE_RFNOC=ON". You can then use uhd_image_downloader. The image package only includes images with the default RFNoC blocks. For the X310, the default image has two DDC
