now my limesdr-mini was working perfect until i did a clean install of ubuntu 18.04.2 amd64 Desktop last night.
i also installed LimeSuite 19.01 (build-date = 2019-02-08) from Myriad PPA.
i then did the command ‘limesuite --update’ and it updated the firmware.
just wondering why i am now getting this RF Loopback error on (TX_2 -> LNA_W)
any info will help greatly.
thanks
i did have ubuntu 18.04.1 installed before this and was using limesuite 18.04 (i believe)
just wanted to add that i switched to my windows 10 64bit drive and it has PothosSDR-2019.03.24-vc14-x64.exe installed on it.
it fails limesuitegui calibrate all with same mcu error 4
if i want to go back to the firmware my lime-mini was using before (i think was 1.27) but maybe it was 1.24?
anyhow do i need to install a certain limesuite or pothosware to flash to lower gateware or can i just use this limesuite 19.01 to flash to lower gateware?
thanks
fixed my own problem by using windows 10 pothos 19.01 and downgrading fpga to 1.27
i then uninstalled pothos and installed pothos from 2018-11-04
calibration passes.
this has NOT fixed my problem.
although i can now successfully “Calibrate All” from within limesuite gui i am still failing RF Loopback Test with the LimeQuickTest program
