Since the UHD is dual-licensed, you can use the alternative license in
this case.  Anyone wishing to do that should just send me an email and
I will get you the license.

Thanks,

Hi Ben,

Thanks for taking time to respond. I wasn?t exactly clear in my email.
I?m don't think I'm having a problem between UHD and the radio. That part
seems to be working fine. When I run uhd_usrp_probe the resulting output
looks like UHD is happy. I'm running what I think is the latest firmware and
FPGA load (the most recent I've been able to find).

My question is with the ExtIO to UHD compatibility when I try to run HDSDR.
ExtIO is reporting a protocol compatibility error (expecting 7 to 11 but got
12).

If I'm understanding what I've been reading, ExtIO is telling me that it
wants an older version of UHD (that may require an older version of the FPGA
load). Please correct me if I'm just being dense <g>.

Thanks,
- Armand

Hello,?

I have a NI-2920 with N210 FW 12.2 and FPGA 10.0 loaded on it. I've
currently have uhd_003_004_002-177 unstable_Win64 loaded.
Computer is an I7 running Windows 7 professional 64 bit.
As a simple test of the system (and to have something to play with) I'm
trying to get HDSDR 2.14 running with it.
uhd_usrp_probe runs fine, but I'm getting an ExtIO error: Expected protocol
compatibility number [7 to 11], but got 12.
I'm guessing this means the firmware in the SDR is too new for the current
version of ExtIO.

I've tried a number of different images for the radio (and read many pages
of archives and web sites) but I haven't a solution.
Has anyone been able to make this combination work?

Thanks,

Is it possible that ExtIO has statically-linked in an older UHD version?

Hi Dean,

Yes I had the same experience dropping uhd.dll into the HDSDR folder. The
only one that seemed to work is the one that installed with HDSDR.
I was having a hard time getting the older versions working on my radio.
I'll try the configuration you're using and see if I can get it going.

Thanks,
- Armand

For me 32 bit and anything other than the 003.004.x code branch. The latest
version of code I could get working was 32 bit 003.003.002. There is now a
knowledge base article on using HDSDR. They mention having success with
003.004 code but I experienced otherwise.

If I remember correctly any uhd.dll that I tried failed to work other than
the version installed in the local folder with the ExtIO dll.

I think you burnt the images compatible with UHD master branch.

I bet this is built with the last release. Burn this one and it should
be fine: http://files.ettus.com/binaries/maint_images/

Hi all,
sorry for basic question but i need to understand these things,
FPGA performs TX DSP functions
filtering => upsampling => digital modulation to IF => DAC

The DAC working on 128 MS/s, that's why the interpolation (filtering and
upsampling)is done to convert sampling rate to 128 , Right ??

about IF, how to find it ??
 in a typical superheterodyne analog receiver the IF is constant frequency.
is that valid here ?

Thanks in advance.
