niUSRP Open Rx Session with Custom Bitfile VI
- Updated2024-10-14
- 3 minute(s) read
Opens a receive (Rx) session with a custom bitfile.
The config and streaming parameters define the type of subsystems used and device functionality available.
For most Ettus USRP X410 applications, set streaming as RIO and config as UHD. For Ettus USRP X410 applications with a custom FPGA, set streaming as none and config as UHD. For Ettus USRP X410 applications using the FPGA as a co-processor and not transmitting or receiving an RF signal, set streaming as none and config as none.
For most other USRP applications, set streaming as UHD and config as UHD.

Inputs/Outputs
device names
—
device names specifies the name(s) or IP address(es) of the device(s).
reset
—
reset specifies whether to reset the device(s) to a known initialization state. Note reset has no effect in NI-USRP. All properties are set to their default values when a session is created.
error in (no error)
—
error in describes error conditions that occur before this node runs. This input provides standard error in functionality.
config
—
config defines the type of configuration subsystem being used.
streaming
—
streaming defines the type of the streaming subsystem being used.
bitfile path
—
bitfile path locates the custom bitfile to load.
session handle out
—
session handle out passes a reference to your instrument session to the next VI. session handle out is obtained from this VI and identifies this receive (Rx) session.
error out
—
error out contains error information. This output provides standard error out functionality. |
