Detailed Description

The Multi-USRP device class:

This class facilitates ease-of-use for most use-case scenarios. The wrapper provides convenience functions to tune the devices, set the dboard gains, antennas, filters, and other properties. This class can be used to interface with a single USRP with one or more channels, or multiple USRPs in a homogeneous setup. All members take an optional parameter for board number or channel number. In the single device, single channel case, these parameters can be unspecified.

When using a single device with multiple channels:

• Channel mapping is determined by the frontend specifications
• All channels share a common RX sample rate
• All channels share a common TX sample rate

When using multiple devices in a configuration:

• Channel mapping is determined by the device address arguments
• All boards share a common RX sample rate
• All boards share a common TX sample rate
• All boards share a common RX frontend specification size
• All boards share a common TX frontend specification size
• All boards must have synchronized times (see the set_time_*() calls)

Example to setup channel mapping for multiple devices:

//create a multi_usrp with two boards in the configuration
device_addr_t dev_addr;
dev_addr["addr0"] = "192.168.10.2"
dev_addr["addr1"] = "192.168.10.3";
multi_usrp::sptr dev = multi_usrp::make(dev_addr);

//set the board on 10.2 to use the A RX frontend (RX channel 0)
dev->set_rx_subdev_spec("A:A", 0);

//set the board on 10.3 to use the B RX frontend (RX channel 1)
dev->set_rx_subdev_spec("A:B", 1);

//set both boards to use the AB TX frontend (TX channels 0 and 1)
dev->set_tx_subdev_spec("A:AB", multi_usrp::ALL_MBOARDS);

//now that all the channels are mapped, continue with configuration...

addr	8-bit register address
data	32-bit register value
mboard	which motherboard to set the user register

write_register()

virtual void uhd::usrp::multi_usrp::write_register ( const std::string &  path, const boost::uint32_t  field, const boost::uint64_t  value, const size_t  mboard = 0  )

pure virtual

Write a low-level register field for a register in the USRP hardware

Parameters

path	the full path to the register
field	the identifier of bitfield to be written (all other bits remain unchanged)
value	the value to write to the register field
mboard	the motherboard index 0 to M-1
