Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] UHD FW Issue for NI USRP 2943R

The windows installer from that site seems to have been linked against UHD 3.9.3, which is why the mismatch. There was no reason to have separately installed UHD, since UHD is listed as a package that is bundled into the installer.

I would remove the 3.9.4 UHD you have if you plan to use Gnu Radio extensively, and the person who builds these windows releases will, at some point, update the packaged UHD to 3.9.4 (or later).

Hi,

As suggested, I am putting the below mail in the discuss gnuradio  list. I installed gnu radio from
http://www.gcndevelopment.com/gnuradio/downloads.htm
64-Bit Any CPU - v3.7.9.2/v1.1.1.

I first Installed GNU radio and then Installed the UHD. Will that  might be a reason for the below mentioned problem??

Not sure why you're getting the communication failtures, but your device
appears, from the uhd_usrp_probe output to be functioning correctly.

I suspect that your Gnu Radio installed was linked against UHD 3.9.3,
which is why the apparent version mismatch, because clearly, your
uhd_usrp_probe is linked against the newer library.

How did you install Gnu Radio?  This part of the discussion should
probably be continued on the discuss-gnuradio mailing list.

The fact that the header indicates 003.009.003 means that you're
actually running 003.009.003, if you installed 3.9.4, it's likely in a
place outside your %PATH%.

The 'can't open file' error is coming from Gnu Radio, not UHD.  My
suspicion is that it's trying to open a file that it cannot open on
Windows, or is specified wrongly.  Not all of the examples are 100%
portable.

The communications error is of more concern.  What type of Ethernet card
do you have on your system?  What is your network setup between your
computer and the X300?

Hi,

I just received the NI USRP-2943R device. It has built-in LabView      FW  and FPGA images. In NI forum, I read that in order to  establish      communication between the USRP and GNUradio, the  latest UHD FW    and   FPGA images needs to be flashed into the  USRP. I downloaded    the  latest  UHD which is USRP Hardware Driver  003.009.004. Using    NI  USRP  configuration Utility tool I was  able to flash the UHD    FPGA  image  usrp_x310_fpga_HGS.lvbitx into  the USRP. Iam using    windows 7  - 64 bit  for my GNUradio  application.

After doing this, the GNUradio application gives FW error.

My question is what is the right verion of FW that is compatibale      with  the NI-USRP 2943R and which tool to use to load it ?

Best Regards,
Sanat
