Limesdr installation issues

rene · 26 July 2017 11:09

I could be mistaken but it could be related to power again. Writing to flash typically takes an extra 40 to 60 mA on some of the chips I have worked with. Perhaps it is enough to kill it if your motherboard can’t source the current.

j4mbob · 26 July 2017 11:14

I hope that is just the case Rene.

I guess I’ll know tomorrow (ordered a 6v power supply off amazon) as I dont have any suitable adapters here as all my electronics stuff is packed away currently.

j4mbob · 26 July 2017 11:26

its sat in the gatemismatch state currently and both limesuite and dmesg is showing it as recognised as a limesdr and connected at USB3:

[348124.476512] usb 4-1: new SuperSpeed USB device number 47 using xhci_hcd
[348124.489158] usb 4-1: LPM exit latency is zeroed, disabling LPM.
[348124.490220] usb 4-1: New USB device found, idVendor=1d50, idProduct=6108
[348124.490221] usb 4-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
[348124.490222] usb 4-1: Product: LimeSDR-USB
[348124.490222] usb 4-1: Manufacturer: Myriad-RF
[348124.490223] usb 4-1: SerialNumber: 0009061C02CA1F0A

I notice the FX3 boot LED keeps going red and looking at dmesg again I can see that its repeatedly dropping out and reconnecting (the USB3 connection) so prehaps it could be a power issue as you suggest.

Cheers

Hi all,

I received my LimeSDR card (version v1.4s) a few days ago,
Unfortunately I can not run the test (LimeSDR-USB Quick Test).
There is no data transfer on the FFT Viewer.
Two status LEDs are lit in green and a third flashes alternately in red and then green.
I have the same problem with windows 7 64 bits and ubuntu 16.04 with the USB 3.0 connection of my PC (core i7 3610 QM , Ivy Bridge).

Same problems with a USB 3 powered HUB and with differents cables.

After a few seconds I have this error generated

The details of the commands line are as follows:

The measure of the USB 3 PowerMeter gives : 5.10V , 0.620 A

Do you think this is a hardware problem with my LimeSDR card?

Thank you for your help.

andrewback · 28 July 2017 13:25

@Zack, @IgnasJ, do you have any suggestions?

j4mbob · 29 July 2017 08:40

Hi,

So tried using a 6v dc … still the same.

Its not even getting past the Westbridge state anymore.

Anyone got any more ideas

vk5bd · 31 July 2017 02:17

Hello Zack,
I can see that there could be some confusion about the jumper numbering as it appears to have changed with different versions of the board, your picture shows it as J17 where as the image posted at LimeSDR made simple - Part 1 shows the FX3 Boot jumper as J13.
Regards,
Bevan

andrewback · 31 July 2017 09:22

Good catch! It was J13 on v1.2 boards, but is J17 on v1.4. Only the beta testing community received the former and this means that we need to get some images updated…

j4mbob · 2 August 2017 07:38

Hi @Zack,

Any other suggestions ?

Thanks

phil020 · 4 August 2017 08:48

Hi,

@andrewback
@Zack
@IgnasJ

I still have problems

I performed additional tests with low level commands and Ubuntu 16.04

This error seems to be generated by ConnectionSTREAM::BeginDataReading in “ConnectionSTREAM.cpp” file

And with the BasicRX program

E:\LimeSDR\Logiciels\BasicRX\Debug>BasicRX.exe

Hi,

@andrewback

do you have any suggestions

Zack · 30 August 2017 07:25

Hi @phil020,

Could you send me register settings (ini) file you are using, please.

Zack · 30 August 2017 07:48

Hi @phil020,

By the way, what version of LimeSuiteGUI are you using? Could you post About window (Help -> About) printscreen, please.
The latest compiled exe file for windows is here:
https://wiki.myriadrf.org/LimeSDR-USB#LimeSuiteGUI_for_Windows

Try Quick Test Procedure with the latest software.

phil020 · 30 August 2017 16:54

Hi @Zack,

I use “self_test.ini” file

My current LimeSuiteGUI software version is

LimeSDR_Software_Version

LimeSDR_Connection_Setting

The LimeSDR card infos is

LimeSDR_Device_Infos

When I execute the Quick Test I have the following errors

With the last version of LimeSuiteGUI I have a software crash when I execute the Quick Test

LimeSDR_Software_Version_last

Hi @Zack,

II tried with a more recent version but unfortunately still have the error and now the software runs an infinite loop with memory saturation.
I have to interrupt it before a full saturation of the memory

Hi @phil020,
Do you press Calculate button in the CGEN tab before running FFTViewer?

phil020 · 11 October 2017 06:56

Hi @Zack,

Yes.
I follow the instructions described in “https://wiki.myriadrf.org/LimeSDR-USB_Quick_Test”

but there is no data transfert on the FFT Viewer (Rx rate = 0 B/s)
and after a moment i have a repeated error “ERROR: No contexts left for reading data”

Hi @phil020,

What says LEDs?
