Hello –
I am using a USRP E312 to transmit a signal from a file. I have a
computer connected to the USRP E312 via serial USB and I SSH into the
USRP E312. Inside the USRP E312, I have a file that is transmitted.
I use the out of the box program that is already in the USRP E312
(tx_from_file program) to transmit the file and the program is set to
transmit repeatedly (file loops). For some reason, when I disconnect
the USRP E312 from the computer, it will still transmit the file for a
little less than a minute then it will stop transmitting. Since the
USRP E312 is meant to be used as a standalone with its own OS, why
does it have to stay connected to a computer in order for it to
continually transmit? Is there some kind of “wait” in the code where
if the USRP E312 does not sense a computer connected to it, it will
timeout?
Thanks
A straight SSH connection to ANY linux box has the property that if the
SSH server cannot maintain contact with the client, it will terminate the
session. This is not specific to E312 or USRPs.
If I had a long-running process that I wanted to "kick off" using an SSH
session, I'd probably use "nohup" and background it prior to disconnecting.
