All,


I am using an Ettus x310 over PCIe and am noticing that there is a delay
from when my program finished sending to the radio and when the radio tells
me that transmission as ended ( the red Tx light turning off).

As I bump up the sample rate I notice this delay decreases until it is
nonexistent. Is this intended behavior or have I done something wrong in my
tests? The procedure to test this is listed below:



1.       Download a copy of the official UHD example scripts from
https://github.com/EttusResearch/uhd/tree/master/host/examples

2.       Ensure that UHD is installed correctly on your testing device and
build the example programs above

3.       Run the following command “ ./tx_waveforms - -rate=1000000 -
-freq=1500000000

4.       Stop the program at any time (how long the radio is running does
not affect the delay)

5.       Observe the radio and notice that the red light under the Tx/Rx
port is still lit on the RF A channel

6.       If you start another transmission while the light is still red,
the console output contains hundreds of thousands of L’s and the radio will
not receive data until the USRP object is recreated.



I am also curious if there is a hard stop functionality for this radio. All
the examples I have seen send an End of Burst packet but is there a way to
completely halt the radio without doing this?



Thanks for the help!

Andrew
