[Discuss-gnuradio] Possible to change RFX400 LO tuning step size?

2009-10-21 Thread Newman, Timothy
Is it possible to change the tuning step size on the RFX400 to something different than the 2 MHz step size it's on now? I've been looking through db_flexrf.cc and have had no luck. Tim --- Timothy R. Newman, Ph.D. Wireless @ Virginia Tech 447 Durham

RE: [Discuss-gnuradio] USB latency problem

2009-09-20 Thread Newman, Timothy
It totally depends on where you implement the latency sensitive components. I believe the best USB can do is a minimum of 100us, and that probably the theoretical minimum. If you need 80-120 us latency, you will definitely need to move the latency sensitive components to the FPGA. Here are a

Has anyone had any experience using a USRP2 with long Ethernet cables, possibly up to the 100m max? I don't forsee any problems but I plan on having several USRP2s distributed throughout a building and having all the host PC's in central location will simplify things. Just wanted to check if

I had a similar problem when I was using a PCIe express card. The problem was with the drivers flow control. For some reason the Marvell Yukon2 drivers I was using with the Belkin PCIe gigabit card thought it was getting overwhelmed with frames and sent a PAUSE frame to the USRP2 and then the

If you're in a hurry to get it to work, your best bet is to go out and buy a GigE express card. I doubt that much work is going into looking into specific incompatible chipsets. I could be wrong. Tim --- Timothy R. Newman, Ph.D. Wireless @ Virginia Tech

There are many more ways than just lumping everything onto a single GPP. A good example is a recent thread on the GNU radio mailing list where the poster is using the USRP2 as a standalone radio with no PC. Pushing key elements to other reconfigurable processors, e.g. the USRP2 FPGA, will

I'm not familiar with what code you are using, but you will need to have a port open on the server you are trying to connect to. In your case, a port should be open on port 5000 at 172.20.2.89 in order for your client code to connect to it. If you enter 127.0.0.1 then you'll need a server

The USRP sink is basically the gnuradio device driver for the USRP. Look at the USRP library code to see how it actually sends the raw data. It accesses the USRP through the USRP device filesystem. It's not simply just writing something to /dev/usrp.. Tim -Original Message- From:

For both those functions you need to pass in the variable you want assigned the value as an input parameter. Look at gnuradio/trunk/gr-usrp2/src/usrp2_source_base.cc for the function definitions of adc_rate and daughterboard_id. Tim From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

The usrp2_fft python code was recently changed to use that adc_rate() call, although the actual implementation returns the value to the input pointer parameter. Just change that line in usrp2_fft back to what it was so you can at least test it: From: input_rate = self.u.adc_rate() /
