We are Using NI USRP-2974 . We want to communicate USRP with Host Computer through Ethernet adapter (enpls0f0) for this we have connected SFP0 Module on the Port 0 . Then we configured Host Computer with IP Address of 192.168.40.1 and a Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0 as mentioned in USRP-2974 Getting Started Guide Document. To test Communication between Host Computer and USRP we Ping the USRP FPGA at address 192.168.40.2 as mentioned in Getting Started Guide Document but the Communication failed with message “ Destination unreachable”. Please provide Solution for this communication Problem with proper Configuration Steps if it seems that we are skipping.

Hi, The IP address depends on the FPGA image. If the FPGA image is HG the IP address for port 0 is 192.168.10.2 with 1GB connection, for port1 192.168.40.2 with 10GB connection. The XG image is dual 10GB connection. The IP address for port0 is 192.168.30.2 for part1 192.168.40.2. The ethernet wires or adapters are also important. Please make sure that for the HG image for port0 the wire/adapter is SFP, for port1 SFP+. in the case of XG image SFP+. if you want to check the image please use the following steps: open "command prompt window" - Win logo + R and type cmd locate USRP utilities folder and copy the address - C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\NI-USRP\utilities change the directory in the command prompt window- cd C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\NI-USRP\utilities run uhd_find_devices Hope this was helpful. All the best

USRP-2974 Communication

Solved!

PC:Win10

Driver version：ni usrp 18.5

programming environment： LabVIEW Communications System Design Suite 3.0.0

connection：RJ45

After changing IP address (without restarting USRP) we ping the ETH0 port from Host computer with new assigned IP address it gets ping, but the USRP is not shown in the device list of Configuration Utility and LabVIEW Communications System Design Suite 3.0.0. When I try to find the device by entering the address,”not installed or running ‘ni systems management server’ ”appears.

please guide how I can find the usrp2974 ?thank you.
