Hey Leo, I haven't seen anyone respond yet and I recently needed to develop a TX RFNoC example of my own. I worked off the rfnoc_rx_to_file.cpp example. Far from perfect, but it gets the job done (transmits data). The main changes are: - copied send_from_file function from tx_samples_from_file.cpp example to handle the streaming of data from the input file - reversed the order that blocks are connected in the graph->connect() function. Now connects optional arg block -> radio. Was radio -> optional arg block. - uses tx_stream instead of rx_stream. Just add this cpp file to the CMake file in the host/examples dir to build it then try it out. I ran it with: build/examples$ ./rfnoc_tx_from_file --block-id DUC_0 --block-args output_rate=200e6,input_rate=5e6 --duration 5 --file usrp_samples.dat
Hope that helps, Ryan -- Ryan L. Marlow R L Marlow Consulting LLC rlmarlow.com
