Fwd: USRP1 control GPIOs on SBX boards

Hi Sean,

thanks for your feedback… I’m still trying to get this working but the
problem persists. Every time I use the “uhd::device_addr_t addr” class
necessary to initialize an “uhd::usrp::multi_usrp::make” object, the GRC
program fails.

Do I need to do something in the swig.i or the Python files to
use “uhd::device_addr_t addr” class? I will send you my .cc and .h
files,
yif you can take a look on those I will be very thankful.

Thanks again.

Best regards,

Unfortunately I wasn’t able to determine the problem after a quick
glance. I recommend that you use gr_modtool to create an out-of-tree
module and then add a block to it. This will set up most of what you
need. Then you can splice in your code/algorithms and not have to worry
as much about the boilerplate stuff.

However, you will have to add some stuff to the CMakeList.txt files to
pull in UHD support. I don’t know off the top of my head how to pull in
UHD directly, but if you pull in the gr-uhd package, that should do it
for you. See gnuradio/cmake/Modules/FindGnuradio.cmake on the next
branch for some guidance on how to do that.

Hi everyone,

I have been trying to make a gnuradio out-of-the-tree block that is able
to control the four GPIOs, currently attached to LED’s, of the SBX
daughter-boards working with an USRP motherboard.

I wonder if anyone can help me on this, making a functional draft code
of such a block:

1 integer input - that will define the state of the GPIOs
1 parameter - to define the motherboard serial number

I believe that for people with knowledge of C++, and Python this is a
very simple module, unfortunately that is not my area since I’m a
hardware engineer and I only work with C.

I tried some approaches, using the gr_modtool to create the module, but
it always fails with GRC running errors like:


Traceback (most recent call last):
File
“/home/to-nelsonpina/Desktop/locus_gnuradio/GRC_files/top_block.py”,
line 16, in

ImportError: /usr/local/lib/libgnuradio-gpio.so: undefined symbol:

This is most likely a failure to define the SWIG header file
appropriately, or possibly you’ve declared a class that SWIG found but
you haven’t defined it. Finally because I just found this out the hard
way, if you’re using the new code structure with block.h, block_impl.h,
and block_impl.cc, be aware that block.h needs to declare an abstract
class and its method declarations need to be pure virtual. block_impl.h
declares the concrete class and block_impl.cc provides concrete method
definitions.

If you want to unmangle that symbol, type this:

c++filt _ZN3uhd4usrp10multi_usrp4makeERKNS_13device_addr_tE

I will appreciate all the help I can get from you guys.

Best regards,
