Issue Details

I want to generate and output a 10 MHz reference clock from the USRP-2954R for use in synchronizing external instruments. How can I implement this?

Solution

Use Exported Reference Frequency Output property from the NI‑USRP API to export the 10 MHz clock from the USRP. The below picture depicts a modified shipping example which uses this property.
