Each issue appears as a row in the table and includes the following fields:
| ID | Known Issue | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 295724 | Transients exist for both Tx and Rx. For IQ sampling rates that are divisible by 2, transients may appear in the first 20 or so samples for both Rx and Tx. Workaround: For Tx, pad the end of each generated waveform with zeros to eliminate the transient samples at the beginning of the subsequent waveform generation. For Rx, acquire sufficient extra data before the expected beginning of the packet and discard the first 20 samples.

| 349079 | Poor streaming performance for multi-device sessions NI-USRP sessions configured to control multiple devices exhibit lower than expected streaming performance. The streaming rate for multi-device sessions should be approximately half that of single device sessions, but actual performance is less than half. For multi-device sessions, it is sometimes not possible to stream at high I/Q rates. Workaround: N/A

| 310810 | NI-USRP returns one of the following errors during Tx: "Packet loss between host and device." or "Packet loss within a burst." A continuous Tx operation that uses a high IQ sampling rate and a small waveform size per write creates a very large number of underflows. The underflows cause the operation to eventually error out with one of the packet loss errors. When one of these errors occurs, a packet has actually been dropped between the host and the device. Workaround: Implement one or more of the following changes: -Use a larger write size in each write call. -Use a smaller IQ sampling rate, if possible. -Use a finite Tx operation that provides all the data in a single write call and sets the end of data? parameter of the write VI to TRUE, if possible.

| 311843 | NI-USRP incorrectly coerces carrier frequency for the NI 292x. If you set the carrier frequency to a value that is out of range for the NI 292x, NI-USRP does not coerce the carrier frequency to a value within range of the NI 292x. Workaround: Set the carrier frequency to a value within range of your device. Select values within the following ranges: NI-2920: 50 MHz - 2.2 GHz. NI-2921: 2.4 GHz - 2.5 GHz; 4.9 GHz - 4.9 GHz.

| 360108 | niUSRP Write Tx Data sometimes ignores timeout if end of data? is true If you call the niUSRP Write Tx Data VI with end of data? set to true, the driver will in some cases ignore the timeout. If the device is configured to start generating at a time that is later than the timeout, the driver will wait for the device to start generating, even if the wait time exceeds the timeout. Workaround: Do not set Start Trigger times further in the future than you want to wait.

| 340767 | NI-USRP Configuration Utility fails to reset after Firmware/FPGA Upgrade The utility reports that it was unable to reset the device after a firmware/FPGA upgrade. The upgrade was successful, but the reset action did not complete. Workaround: Unplug and replug the device to manually power cycle the device and complete the reset action.
