Richard, I believe what you're looking for is the depth of the command queue. For the X310, this FIFO has a depth of 16. Any command that you issue to the X310 that has a command time set will be held in this FIFO until the radio's time matches the command time, at which point the command is executed.
You should definitely keep track of the state of the command queue - overflowing this FIFO will put the radio in a bad state, usually requiring a restart. https://files.ettus.com/manual/classuhd_1_1usrp_1_1multi__usrp.html#a191b78b00d051d3d51c2f719361c1fb5 https://files.ettus.com/manual/classuhd_1_1time__spec__t.html Sam Reiter On Tue, Jan 14, 2020 at 2:01 PM Richard Joseph Muri via USRP-users < usrp-users@lists.ettus.com> wrote: > Hello, > > > I'm using an X310 with a number of scheduled receives.
