Being lazy, and since my Octoclock-G is already connected to a scope for 
triggering, I measured the 1 PPS pulse to be 200 ms wide and 2.82 V pk-pk. You 
can easily find GPS chips or modules that will output that level, but I am not 
sure about pulse width. I suspect that as long as the pulse width is on the 
order of 200 us or more, the B200mini will be fine. If you are not super fussy 
about pulse edge degradation, then a 555-based one-shot will make the pulse 
from the GPS module as long as you want.

Obviously, it?s worth consulting the schematic where is says the 1 PPS max is 
-5 / +5 V and min is 0 / 2.5 V and the SN75AUP1T57 is used to buffer the 
signal for FPGA input.
 
Hope that helps.

?Jonathon,

Yes that fixed my problems by installing the radio-redo? in gr-ettus.

Thank you for your help.

Hi Craig,

block.xml is the default XML that is loaded when a block's XML is not found -- 
basically a NOC ID is not matched with a corresponding XML file. Double check 
your XML file is installed in the right place (looks like 
/usr/local/share/uhd/rfnoc from the log), that the NOC IDs match, and that you 
don't have any syntax errors in the XML file.

?Jonathon,

I made it past my problem of using rfnoc-radio-redo with my X310.

Using my own python code running in cocotb, I was able to simulate the 
noc_block_skeleton.v file and in the process learned a lot more about flow 
control and the changes you made from the rfnoc-devel branch.

My testbench imports my file sink data generated by gnuradio and runs the data 
through your noc_block_skeleton.v file.  Then I renamed the 
noc_block_skeleton.v as noc_block_Receiver.v and generated a bit file.  I also 
generated the necessary XML files with a unique NOC ID so uhd_usrp_probe would 
recognize it.


What is strange is that uhd_usrp_probe recognized my .bit file but didn't match 
it up with my

Receiver.xml file located in /usr/local/share/uhd/rfnoc/blocks/Receiver.xml.  
My NOC ID for Receiver is 614A. (Today's date)

Instead it matched it with the block.xml.  It also named it block instead of 
Receiver.


I also tried imitating the noc_block_moving_avg instead of noc_block_skeleton 
and I got the same result.


How can this be?  I have done this plenty of times with the rfnoc-devel branch 
coupled with my E310.

Also I thought the rfnoc-radio-redo branch eliminated one of the radios?

Shown below is a portion of what I got when I ran uhd_usrp_probe --init-only

Hi Richard,

It looks like the DDC RFNoC block may have an issue. I'm looking into it.
For now, don't instantiate it in a design. If you run into other issues,
let me know.

Message-ID: <[email protected]>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

Jonathon,

I am assuming that I un-comment out one of the lines in the /top/x300/Makefile 
to turn off one of the radios.  It says it is experimental.  Is it more robust 
now?  I think this only applies to the DSP's, but not removing the actual 
radio?  I want to remove one of the radios to save space for someday moving my 
code over to the much smaller E310.


Also I noticed a UART is available for debug.  Have you found that useful?

Here is the portion in the Makefile:


# Debug Options
# Uncomment the following lines to build radio's with no DSP's (experimental!)
#OPTIONS += DELETE_DSP0=1
#OPTIONS += DELETE_DSP1=1
# Uncomment the following line to add a debug UART on GPIO 10 & 11
#OPTIONS += DEBUG_UART=1

Here is what I get when I uhd_usrp_probe:

-- ========== Full list of RFNoC blocks: ============
-- * 0/Radio_0
-- * 0/Radio_1
-- * 0/FIFO_0
-- * 0/MovingAverage_0
-- * 0/Receiver_0

John,

we don't provide images except for the occasional stable release
udpates, so there's no RFNoC image. You'll need to set up a cross
compile environment, see here for instructions:
https://kb.ettus.com/Software_Development_on_the_E310_and_E312

Cheers,
Martin

Jonathon,

Thanks for the quick reply! That sounds good.
I was wondering if it would help if I ran a make cleanall first, and
re-generated. I'm doing that now on one computer, but since it'll take a
while, I'm going to let it run through.
Again, thanks for the heads up. I appreciate what you and Martin Braun (and
whomever else) are doing, and have been wanting to get into using RFNoC for
some time now.

Hi Pol,

If the bootloader is loaded, the internal, external, and status LEDs will
all be on for one second upon power up.  If you only see the internal and
status LEDs, the bootloader is not loaded and the Octoclock is booting
directly into the firmware.

Regards,
Michael

Dear Nikolas and Michael,

I guess I do have the bootloader. Indeed, I can ping to 192.168.10.3 and
two LED's in the left column (Internal and Status LED's) are turn on. Is it
right?

Thank you.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"

Hi all,

I have connected to my USRP N210 to a computer running Ubuntu 15.04 via a
GigE switch. However, the computer fails to recognize the USRPs, both via
uhd_find_devices and a ping 192.168.10.2 says "connect: network is
unreachable" .

I set a static ip via : sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.10.1 .

It isn't an issue with the ethernet port, as a direct ethernet "internet"
connection works fine.

Could you please let me know how I might be able to fix this ?

Thanks!

Message-ID: <[email protected]>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="windows-1252"

In addition to Steven's references, I'd like to add that yes, VERT2450
is really just a monopole. It *is* a good 2.4GHz WiFi antenna, but if
you're looking for measurement antennas, it's definitely not the product
of choice.

Other than that: WiFi cards equalize heavily. I don't believe that even
a very narrowband antenna would pose a significant problem for that.
But yes, *everything*, including temperature, air moisture and connector
pressure influence the channel matrix. The question is how you would
measure that with something like a WiFi card, which is by no means a
device meant for measurements, or with something as varying, fading,
selective as the typical WiFi channel, short of using an anechoic chamber.

Best regards,
Marcus

You're going to need to use Network Manager via the gui widgets to 
configure static IP.  Anything you do with "ifconfig" will get overwritten
   by whatever policy Network Manager has in place.

Thanks.

In the GUI variant, I select manual IPV4 and it asks for Netmask and
Gateway addresses too. What would be the addresses ?

Attached is an image of what I have set, and it still fails to recognize
the device.

One more point is that the lshw command indicates the following - i.e. the
speed is 100Mb/s, and not a 1000Mb/s. I have however connected the computer
to the USRP via a switch. Is this a concern?

 configuration: autonegotiation=on broadcast=yes driver=atl1c
driverversion=1.0.1.1-NAPI duplex=full ip=192.168.10.1 latency=0 link=yes
multicast=yes port=twisted pair speed=100Mbit/s

You don't want a gateway address of .255 in this case.   Set it to any 
other legit address on that subnet--the gateway is only use to route
   off-subnet traffic that happens to get to that interface.

It may be the case that your switch is not set up to gateway 100Mbit to 
1000Mbit traffic?   The USRP2 absolutely requires 1000Mbit to work.

Subject: [USRP-users] Power management E310
Message-ID: <[email protected]>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8

Dear all,
Has anybody tried to user power management on an E310?

I would like to suspend Linux, then resume based on certain trigger.

Timed sleep would be ideal, but I understand this might be difficult to
achieve.

A suitable alternative could be waking up on LAN or GPIO stimulus.

Best regards,
Claudio
