Software Options
You must use the USRP RIO IDL when programming the USRP-2974.
Note
The NI-USRP API is not supported when programming the USRP-2974.
•
Description:
–
Allows you to interface with the FPGA of your USRP-2974 for advanced
programming and digital signal processing (DSP).
–
Uses the USRP RIO Sample Projects, which allow you to take common
measurements with your device. USRP RIO Sample Projects are included in the
installation.
•
Use Case: Use with LabVIEW Communications System Design Suite to customize the
behavior of the device FPGA to create application-specific instrument designs.
