Re: [USRP-users] N310 timeouts on Rx... Which UHD version will make my N310 work?

Thanks for the feedback. I tried 3.13.0.2 this afternoon but still the same Rx timeout issues. I’ll take a look at allocating more memory for the ethernet drivers. But the wireshark results still puzzle me. I’m getting timeouts even on low bandwidth collects (just as a test case of course).

Here is my Lab's N310 experiance: 3.12 had your issue (2) 3.13.0.0 had bizarre TX behavior and lock ups that required a reboot or re-image. Our RX noise floor was also suspiciously high. 3.13.0.1 was no better 3.13.0.2 fixed all our problems. As long as we tell linux to allocate plenty of ram

Hi, the recv function has a return value which tells you the amount of samples returned. Usually you use this value to increase your buffer pointer and continue writing where you stopped. You should also try to plot the data to see what is happening. Hope that helps, Fabian Am 04.09.2018 um

If you only need integer decimation, noc_block_ddc should have everything you need or close to it. Averaging across FFTs can be done with noc_block_vector_iir. For an example, check out the flowgraph rfnoc_vector_iir.grc in gr-ettus. Jonathon On Tue, Sep 4, 2018 at 3:23 PM Rich Maes wrote: >
