Cannont find a GPSDC

I am currently running the "niUSRP EX Rx with GPS.vi" with a USRP N210.

I have recently installed the NIUSRP1400 and NIGPS200. I just updated the firmware as requested by the VI. 

 

However now when I run the VI, the following error comes up:

Error -1074118634 occurred at niUSRP Configure Signal.vi

Possible reason(s):
Cannot find a GPSDC

 

Has anyone faced this error before?

Hi dmc2,

 

Are you using an Ettus USRP or an NI USRP? And if so, does your USRP have a GSPDO installed?

Hi dmc2, 

To supplement muffin.vi's post, I suspect the issue might be that your USRP does not have the GPSDO kit. 
The USRP N210 product page mentions, "An optional GPSDO module can also be used to discipline the USRP N210 reference clock to within 0.01 ppm of the worldwide GPS standard."

To add that in, you would need the GPSDO kit.

If you have additional support related questions about the Ettus USRP, I would recommend reaching out to Ettus support since they are best equipped to address those technical questions.

Thank you for the replies. I will double check and see if I'm missing the GPSDO module.
