Verifying the Device Connection
Run
Tx and Rx Streaming (Host).gvi
to confirm that the device transmits and
receives signals and is connected correctly to the host computer.
1.
In LabVIEW Communications System Design Suite, navigate to
Projects
.
2.
Select
USRP-2974 Single-Device Streaming
. Click
Create
.
3.
Add the USRP-2974 device to the project as described in
4.
Run
Tx and Rx Streaming (Host).gvi
.
If the device is transmitting and receiving signals, the front panel graphs display
waveform data.

Device Troubleshooting
Should I Update Device Firmware and FPGA Images?
Your device ships with firmware and FPGA images compatible with the NI-USRP driver
software. You may need to update the device for compatibility with the latest version of the
software.
Why Doesn't the Device Power On?
Verify that the power supply is functional by substituting a different adapter.
Network Troubleshooting
Why Doesn't the Device Respond to a Ping
(ICMP Echo Request)?
The device should reply to an internet control message protocol (ICMP) echo request.
To ping the device, open a Windows command prompt and enter
ping
<IP address>
,
where
<IP address>
is the IP address for your USRP device. If you do not receive a
response, verify that the host network interface card is set to a static IP address corresponding
to the same subnet as the IP address of the corresponding device. Also verify that the device IP
address is set properly.
