Help... :-(
Posted: Fri Oct 19, 2018 6:38 pm
Well, I put the X115 and XB200 in a box to see how things would develop since the release and decided to take another run on Wednesday to see where I stood. Pulled the latest Windows installer, followed directions, and have arrived at a point of spinning my wheels going nowhere.
Installation is Windows 7 Home Premium, latest updates.
After installing the latest installer from the website, all appeared well until I ran the CLI.
Here's a report of what is said:
bladeRF> version
bladeRF-cli version: 1.6.1
libbladeRF version: 2.0.2
Firmware Version: 2.2.0-git-3d38fac2
FPGA version: 0.8.0
bladeRF> info
Board: Nuand bladeRF (bladerf1)
Serial #: xxxxxxxxxxxx
VCTCXO DAC calibration: 0x9c53
FPGA size: 115 KLE
FPGA loaded: yes
USB bus: 1
USB address: 1
USB speed: Hi-Speed
Backend: libusb
Instance: 0
bladeRF> probe
[WARNING @ host/libraries/libbladeRF/src/backend/usb/libusb.c:350] Found a bladeRF via VID/PID, but could not open it due to insufficient permissions, or because the device is already open.
Desctiption: Nuand bladeRF (currently open)
Backend: libusb
Serial: xxxxxxxxxx (matches Info, above)
USB Bus: 1
USB Address: 1
Only 1 and one only LED is active.
Looking at previous errors, I surmised that updating libbladeRF was in order (maybe?) but I've used the latest installer, so I'd expect that would be the most current version. While searching around for info, I found a github conversation involving Tucker (https://github.com/Nuand/bladeRF/issues/641) that caused me to grab the referenced installer - that seems to have made some progress - the permissions issues are gone, but now I have an error RX DC calibration table not found for this board - even after running the cal dc rx routine.
So, the next test was to fire up SDRConsole... No love.
Any thoughts/direction from where I am?
