SoapySDRUtil unable to find UHD network device #1

Open janvgils opened 3 years ago

janvgils commented 3 years ago

When trying to connect to a remote, network based Ettus Research SDR (X310) there was the below error.

SoapySDRUtil --probe="uhd"

[ERROR] avahi_service_browser_new() failed: Bad state

After installing the avahi daemon sudo apt-get install avahi-daemon there was no longer the error message. We still need confirmation if this solved the problem of not being able to connect to a remote UHD device.

SoapySDRUtil --probe="driver=uhd,type=x310"

The sudo apt-get install avahi-daemon didn't solve the issue.

Next option:

SoapySDRUtil --probe="driver=uhd,type=x310,addr=x.x.x.x"

At the end the following command was successful:

SoapySDRUtil --probe="driver=uhd,addr=x.x.x.x"
