Hi Konstanitn, I assume you mean you are using VirtualBox, not VMWare.
You will need to add a USB Filtering rule for the USRP within the settings for the virtual machine (within VirtualBox settings). You will need to add a rule for VID: 2500 PID: 0020 for the B210. Also, you need replace the value "<install-path>" with the path to which UHD is installed, commonly this is /usr/local/. uhd_images_downloader will be located /usr/local/lib/uhd/utils/uhd_image_downloader.py Regards, Nate Temple > On Jul 14, 2017, at 9:28 AM, Matheou, Konstantin J.
