Hi ,

Has anyone tested an external local oscillator on N310 ?

   I tried to set LO to external.But can't receive the correct signal.

   This is my code to set LO source:

谢谢,有任何问题请随时与我联系!

Keep in mind that the external LO must be at TWICE the desired center
frequency, due to the use of 2XLO mixers.

Also: You need to set external LO during device creation. Doing so during
runtime is supposed to work,
but I've never actually tried that method. Setting during as noted can be
made to work. - MLD

I used TWICE frequency. But it doesn’t work.

Have you tried successfully already?

Spend some time with the online documentation for the N310 here:

https://files.ettus.com/manual/page_usrp_n3xx.html#n3xx_usage

There are device arguments you must pass to get the external LO to work.

Do you  mean that I need to change MPM config files, and than reboot the N310 ?

Does the N310 LO source will be changed to external when I complete these above steps ?

谢谢,有任何问题请随时与我联系!

No, you don't have to reconfigure MPM.

But look at the table of device arguments--there's a 'rx_lo_source'
argument that must be set to "external".  This is what Michael Dickens was
  talking about in his reply to you yesterday.

If this still doesn't work, please share with us the pieces of code that
you are using to set-up external LO ,so that we might spot any errors in
that
  code.

You absolutely shouldn't need to modify the MPM configuration to use
external LO.

I don't happen to know off the top of my head, but it gets started as
usrp-hwd by systemd.

Find /usr -name "usrp-hwd.conf"  when you're logged in to it should find it.

But, I must emphasize AGAIN.  To use external LO, you don't need to
modify MPMs configuration at all.

You just need the correct device arguments when you're creating the USRP
device within your application.

谢谢,有任何问题请随时与我联系!

 Does the N310 LO source will be changed to external when I
 complete these above steps ?

No, you don't have to reconfigure MPM.

But look at the table of device arguments--there's a 'rx_lo_source'
argument that must be set to "external". This is what Michael Dickens was
  talking about in his reply to you yesterday.

If this still doesn't work, please share with us the pieces of code
that you are using to set-up external LO ,so that we might spot any
errors in that
  code.

     Have you tried successfully already?

 Spend some time with the online documentation for the N310 here:

 https://files.ettus.com/manual/page_usrp_n3xx.html#n3xx_usage

 There are device arguments you must pass to get the external LO to
 work.
