Cannot fire the synchronized TX

Post by teb »

I had updated my bladeRF tools and firmware to the 2016.06 release and tried
multi-device TX synchronization. Here is what I had done on the master device:

Code: Select all

bladeRF> version

  bladeRF-cli version:        1.4.0
  libbladeRF version:         1.7.2

  Firmware version:           1.8.0
  FPGA version:               0.6.0

bladeRF> set frequency 1575.42M
bladeRF> set samplerate 2.6M
bladeRF> set bandwidth 2.5M
bladeRF> set txvga1 -20
bladeRF> tx config file=gps.bin
bladeRF> set smb_mode output
bladeRF> trigger j71-4 tx master
bladeRF> tx start
and then, fire the trigger

Code: Select all

bladeRF> trigger j71-4 tx fire
but no signal is coming out from the TX port.

If I stop the TX and start again without trigger

Code: Select all

bladeRF> tx stop
bladeRF> tx start
then I can see the nice and clean signal.

I am wondering if I missed something.
