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.
