Hardware

  • USRP-2974
  • USRP-2954
  • USRP X310

Issue Details

My USRP-2974 had been installed Windows 10 operating system and NI-USRP driver but when I opened NI-USRP Configuration Utility the model showed USRP-2954 instead of USRP-2974 which is the actual model of the hardware. Below shows how the USRP-2974 is being detected in NI-USRP Configuration Utility and LabVIEW NXG.

Solution

This is the expected outcome for USRP-2974 because the USRP-2974 is a combination of USRP-2954 and a PC. If you refer to the block diagram below, the PC and the USRP-2974 are connected via ethernet and PCIe.
