EEPROM warning USRP & WBX0510

Hi,

I have a USRP board with 2 WBX0510 daughter boards. When I ran
./usrp_benchmark_usb.py, there were warning messages as follows:

Testing 2MB/sec…
Warning: Treating daughterboard with invalid EEPROM contents as if it
were a “Basic Tx.”
Warning: This is almost certainly wrong… Use appropriate
burn-*-eeprom utility.

Warning: Treating daughterboard with invalid EEPROM contents as if it
were a “Basic Rx.”
Warning: This is almost certainly wrong… Use appropriate
burn-*-eeprom utility.

Can anyone suggest me how to resolve this issue?

Thanks,

Santana

Yes. Don’t run that program. It doesn’t do anything you need. It was
written years ago to aid in development of the USB interface, and it is
outdated. The real applications all work fine.

Hi Matt,

I tried running ./usrp_nbfm_ptt.py -f 149.225e6 , the scope was
running, but the warning messages still show up as follows:

Warning: Treating daughterboard with invalid EEPROM contents as if it
were a “Basic Tx.”
Warning: This is almost certainly wrong… Use appropriate
burn-*-eeprom utility.

audio_alsa_source[hw:0,0]: unable to support sampling rate 32000
card requested 44100 instead.

gr_fir_fff: using SSE
TX using Unknown (0x0052)

Warning: Treating daughterboard with invalid EEPROM contents as if it

RX using Unknown (0x0053)

Do I need to do anything with eeprom?

The executable is now called gnuradio-companion since
3.3-rc-something, because the name grc was also used by some other
application.

Hi all,

I have installed gnuradio with grc. the bootstrap, configure, make, make
check and sudo make install all of them ran nicely. However when I type
“grc” in the terminal it says:

The program ‘grc’ is currently not installed. You can install it by
typing:
sudo apt-get install grc
grc: command not found

I tried to figure out what the problem is , and now can run grc by
double-clicking this file
“/usr/local/share/gnuradio/grc/freedesktop/GRC”. Can anybody help me in
fixing the problem, please? or maybe there’s something went wrong in
the installation caused this to happen.

Thank you,

Sam

No, do not do anything to the EEPROM. You are using a version of GNU
Radio from before the WBX was released. You need to upgrade to a newer
version.
