Make sure your radio hardware is configured for host-radio communication by following the steps in Guided Host-Radio Hardware Setup.

Create a radio object for your radio hardware. For example:

dev = sdrdev('AD936x')
dev = 
  SDRDevAD936x with properties:

     IPAddress: '192.168.3.2'
    DeviceName: 'AD936x'

Use this object to get radio hardware information.
