Why Doesn't the Device Power On?
Check the power supply by substituting a different adapter.
Why Doesn't the USRP Device Appear in the NI-USRP
Configuration Utility?
1. Check the connection between the USRP device and the computer.
2. Ensure that the USRP device is connected to a computer with a gigabit-compatible
Ethernet adapter.
3. Ensure that a static IP address of 192.168.10.1 is assigned to the adapter in your
computer.
4. Allow up to 15 seconds for the device to completely start up.
In the NI-USRP Configuration Utility, Why Does USRP2 Appear
Instead of NI 292x?
An incorrect IP address on the computer may cause this error. Check the IP address and run
the NI-USRP Configuration Utility again.
An old FPGA or firmware image on the device may also cause this error. Upgrade the FPGA
and firmware using the NI-USRP Configuration Utility.
Why Don't NI-USRP Examples Appear in the
NI Example Finder?
NI-USRP does not install examples into the NI Example Finder.
You can access the NI-USRP examples from the following locations:
• From the Start menu at Start»All Programs»National Instruments»NI-USRP»
Examples.
• In LabVIEW from Functions»Instrument I/O»Instrument Drivers»NI‑USRP»
Examples palette.
Network Troubleshooting
Why Doesn't the Device Respond to a Ping
(ICMP Echo Request)?
The device should reply to an internet control message protocol (ICMP) echo request. To ping
the device, open a Windows command prompt and enter ping 192.168.10.2, where
192.168.10.2 is the IP address for your USRP device. If you do not receive a response,
verify that the host network interface card is set to a static IP address corresponding to the
same subnet as the IP address of the corresponding device. Also verify that the device IP
address is set properly.
