LimeSDR under SDR-Console

Paul,

Those are part of the FPGA files for the LimeSDR and aren’t for the PC - so those files won’t help you because the latest RBF and IMG files (I’m assuming) were loaded at the factory so the LimeSDR has the means to operate with apps once the USB 3.0 drivers are installed. For the record, those USB 3.0 drivers are located here:

http://downloads.myriadrf.org/project/limesdr/limesdr_cyusb_driver_1.3.zip

Just follow the directions at this web location:

https://wiki.myriadrf.org/Lime_Suite#CyUSB_driver

And then once the USB 3.0 drivers are installed you should be home free unless there are such significant changes to the LimeSDR since the beta versions were let out there for the developers and bloggers (me) that they aren’t compatible to the LimeSDR apps that exist in their initial form (read here: the old version LimeSDR).

Also, at this moment in time, plugging my new LimeSDR into my main station PC it’s seen by the Device Manager, but it has a warning that the driver isn’t installed even though it knows it’s a LimeSDR:

…And when I plug in my old LimeSDR I get:

So what I think we have is that the new LimeSDR has new drivers and I’m not sure they’ve updated that on the MyriadRF website, but I saw a gripe on that this morning and Andrew Back mentioned that they would be updating that. Hope that happens soon or there’s going to be a lot of unhappy Backers in the short term…

I have the benefit of running this on a Cube PC so I may just see if I can load the new drivers onto my Cube PC running Win10 and see if I can make the existing drivers function…Stay tuned for that much later this evening…
