Hey All,

Can anyone confirm a behavior for me?

I'm using an X300, and I find that whenever my application throws an error
from the UHD, I can no longer ping or communicate to the device afterwards.
I'm required to do a hard power cycle before I can begin communicating with
the device again.

Rob

Vladica,
We deleberatly do not expose direct gain control for this multiplier in the UHD 
API.
This gain block is used to compensate for variable algorithmic gain in other 
elements on the signal chain and the sample format used in the transport. We 
leave it configured to maximize dynamic range available to the application.
You'll find the applicable code in host/lib/usrp/cores/*_dsp_core_*.cpp; search 
for the private variables _scaling_adjustment and _dsp_extra_scaling.

-Ian

Thanks Ian,

I finally managed to get it working (thanks for your help and the one of
the others).

I generated the FPGA image, and was trying to burn it with the net burner
tool:
http://files.ettus.com/uhd_docs/manual/html/usrp2.html#load-the-images-onto-the-on-board-flash-usrp-n-series-only
I didn't modify anything on the FPGA source code, only generated it myself
with Xilinx.


After that my USRP stopped working, and I have to power in safe-mode with
the S2 button described under "Device recovery and bricking".

Now I have tried to give my USRP a new IP address, since it is not beeing
recognized when running uhd_find_devices, by running:

cd /usr/local/lib/uhd/utils
sudo ./usrp2_recovery.py --ifc=eth0 --new-ip=192.168.20.2

The output seems correct, but when trying to ping the device or run
uhd_find_devices there is no success.

Any ideas on how to recover my USRP N210?
