I possess the USRP X310 with a Basic TX daughterboard installed. My plan is to use it via 10GbE together with LabView with a Win10 host machine. I have connected the SDR with an Ethernet cable using Port 0 and the included SFP adapter to my host PC's (1GbE) ethernet interface for network testing purposes. The ethernet adapter is configured to use the static IP 192.168.10.1. Furthermore I have installed the UHD (uhd_3.15.0.0-release_Winx64_VS2017.exe). However when the device is connected and powered on, I can neither ping 198.168.10.2 nor detect it running the uhd_find_devices.exe. I have also started the NI-USRP Configuration Utility which I recently updated but it was not able to detect the SDR either. I do observe that none of the LEDs on the back is illuminated (especially not the Port 0 ethernet). How can I get it working?

  • Does this answer your question? [When trying to use my USRP in GNU Radio, I get a " No devices found for ----->" error](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/33304828/when-trying-to-use-my-usrp-in-gnu-radio-i-get-a-no-devices-found-for) – Marcus Müller Aug 03 '20 at 15:11

If you've worked with other usrps (I have a few), then you'll find the X310 to be somewhat different, to the lower models.

Anyway, there are different fpga loads / images, which corrospond to whether you are trying to connect via a 1G or 10G module.

"The PCIe interface is always available regardless of what FPGA image is loaded. Ettus ships two FPGA image variants, the HG or HGS image which has one 1 GigE interfaces and one 10 GigE interfaces, and the XG image which has two 10 GigE interfaces.

So you need to be sure you have the right image to connect to it via 1GE... or I expect it won't work, as it seems to be.

HTH's.
