Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] USRP connection problem

[Marcus Müller]

Hi Vinay,

I'm taking the freedom to CC: the usrp-users mailing list here, as this is not a GNU Radio problem. I think you should follow up there.

The E310, by default, doesn't have a static IP address, but gets one from a DHCP server. So, in order to talk to it, you should have a DHCP server running in the network you connect the E310 to -- if you use a direct cable between your PC and the E310, you should be running a DHCP server, for examble dnsmasq, on the PC. Your DHCP server will tell you which IP address the E310 got. Afterwards, you should be able to just SSH into the E310.

Alternatively, use the serial console, and set a static IP address.

Both ways, SSH and serial console, are described in the E310 Manual:

http://files.ettus.com/manual/page_usrp_e3x0.html#e3x0_getting_started

Notice that the E310 is not like the other, non-E-series, USRPs: you can't just use it from your host PC with a USRP source/sink, but have to run your signal processing software (i.e. GNU Radio) *on* the E310 itself. Doing that requires some Linux experience, so my recommendation is: Install a Linux on your PC (I think you're still using the LiveDVD); there's no way around that, because in order to build software for the E310, you will need to install a lot of software on the PC you're using for development. Implement as much as possible as simulation on your PC, in a way that would allow you to just replace the simulated data input and output by USRP source and sink. If you have a non-E310 USRP, test with that. Then, bring your software to the E310.

Best regards,
Marcus
