DESCRIPTION

9       Find UHD-supporting Ettus Research products attached by USB, network or
10       embedded configuration.
11
12       The UHD package is the universal hardware  driver  for  Ettus  Research
13       products.  The goal is to provide a host driver and API for current and
14       future Ettus Research products. Users will  be  able  to  use  the  UHD
15       driver standalone or with 3rd party applications.

IDENTIFYING DEVICES

28       Devices  are  addressed  through  key/value string pairs.  These string
29       pairs can be used to narrow down the search for a  specific  device  or
30       group  of  devices.   Most UHD utility applications and examples have a
31       --args parameter that takes a device address, where the device  address
32       is expressed as a delimited string.  See the documentation in types/de‐
33       vice_addr.hpp for reference.
34
35       Every device has several ways of identifying it on the host system.
36
37   Identifying by hardware identifier
38       All Ettus Research devices can be found through their  hardware  series
39       identifier, which match to devices as follows:
40
41       Argument       |  Device
42
43       type=usrp1     |  USRP1
44
45       type=usrp2     |  USRP2, USRP N200, USRP N210
46
47       type=b100      |  USRP B100
48
49       type=b200      |  USRP B200, USRP B210
50
51       type=e3x0      |  USRP E310
52
53       type=x300      |  USRP X300, USRP X310
54
55       type=octoclock |  OctoClock
56
57
58   Identifying by serial number
59       All  Ettus Research devices are given a unique serial number, which can
60       be used to identify a device as follows:
61
62       serial=12345678
63
64
65   Identifying by IP address
66       USRP2, USRP N200, USRP N210, USRP X300, USRP X310,  and  OctoClock  de‐
67       vices  connected  to the host machine can all be found through their IP
68       addresses, as follows:
69
70       addr=192.168.10.2
71
72
73   Identifying by name
74       Users have the option of giving their devices  short  names  using  the
75       usrp_burn_mb_eeprom     and    octoclock_burn_eeprom    utilities    in
76       lib/uhd/utils. Devices that have been given a name can be identified as
77       follows:
78
79       name=foo
80
81

EXAMPLES

83   Device discovery via command line
84       Device  address  arguments  can  be supplied to narrow the scope of the
85       search.
