No, I’m still unsure of what the issue is and cannot replicate it. Start a telnet or netcat session with the platform, replacing the IP shown below with your board’s IP address.
`nc 192.168.2.100 7147` The response from the server will look something like this: #version-connect katcp-library v0.2.0-295-g5b314db-dirty 2024-01-11T03:34:31 #version-connect katcp-protocol 5.0-M #version-connect kernel 5.4.0-xilinx-v2020.2 #1\_SMP\_Mon\_Aug\_15\_19:08:58\_UTC\_2022 Check the version by sending the command: `?rfdc-driver-ver`. The expected output would look like this: #version-connect katcp-library v0.2.0-295-g5b314db-dirty 2024-01-11T03:34:31 #version-connect katcp-protocol 5.0-M #version-connect kernel 5.4.0-xilinx-v2020.2 #1\_SMP\_Mon\_Aug\_15\_19:08:58\_UTC\_2022 ?rfdc-driver-ver #rfdc-driver-ver version:\_8.100000 !rfdc-driver-ver ok Mitch > On Mar 23, 2026, at 7:13 AM, Tilak Katoch <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi Mitch, >> >> >> >> >> On Wed, 18 Mar 2026 at 21:59, Mitchell Burnett <[email protected]> >> wrote: >> Hi Tilak, >> >> Could you please try downloading and installing the `tcpborphserver3_v8.1` >> file again from the instructions in the readme for the zcu208update? > I downloaded and installed the `tcpborphserver3_v8.1` file and followed the > instructions in the readme for the zcu208update as you said. >> >> >> This is strange.
