UHD considered by NI-USRP driver 19.1

Hi,

 

I have downloaded the NI-USRP driver 19.1.

I think that the UHD driver is included in this NI-USRP driver. So, I wonder which release of UHD has been considered for NI-USRP19.1.

 

Is there a way to know theUHD version included in each NI-USRP driver version?

 

Another question: what is the difference between downloading the UHD driver from Ettus research and the NI-USRP driver from NI (as I have found that Ettus is a trademark of NI).

My objectif is to detect USRP devices and I wonder the difference between these two approaches ( UHD/NI-USRP drivers).

 

Cordially.

NI-USRP includes a particular build of uhd that is only intended to be used as part of the NI-USRP stack.  NI-USRP can co-exist with a separate installation of UHD, however, so if you want to use the UHD API, you can install it on the same machine.  See here:

 

https://files.ettus.com/manual/

 

 

NI-USRP includes both LabVIEW and C APIs.  It also includes a graphical utility to discover connected USRP Devices.  "NI-USRP Configuration Utility" in the Start Menu (you can also find it here: "C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\NI-USRP\utilities\USRP-utils.exe")
