SD card image creation not Successful.

I created my SD card image with the "Manual Host-Radio Hardware Setup"

Now when I inserted the SD Card on my FPGA, I try to ping as 192.168.3.2

I get no response. I am using matlab version 2020b.

What must I do to successfully run my Radio -ZC706- AD9361 Board.

Thanks to anyone who can respond to my request.

I used the following matlab code to setup "Manually Host-Radio Hardware Setup".

The code is as follows:

dev = sdrdev('AD936x');
downloadImage(dev,'BoardName','ZC706 and FMCOMMS2/3/4','SDCardLocation','/media/jarul/BOOT');

After several attempt, one of my SD-card is inserted into AD9361. Turned on the Radio and able to ping from my host

as follows: ping 192.168.3.2 -c 3

I got a ping response, properly.

But now I do the testConnection as follows:

dev = sdrdev('AD936x');
testConnection(dev,'192.168.3.2')

## Pinging host IP address

Error using comm.zynqradioshared.dev.Base/pingHost

Host and device IP address can not be the same

Error in comm.zynqradioshared.dev.Base/testConnection

Error in comm.zynqradio.dev.Base/testConnection (line 64)

status = [e-mail](obj,varargin{:});

Can someone help me, why do I get the following response or error message?

Thanks

testConnection(dev,'192.168.3.2')

When you do that, the IP address that you give in the second parameter must not be the IP address associated with the radio.

If you pass that second parameter at all, then the IP address you pass must be an IP address of the host computer that will be communicating with the radio.

I do not know enough about the setup to know whether it is possible to be configuring a different computer that will be acting as host (for example if you were setting up a Simulink Realtime system.)

What I do know is that when you are working with a system that has multiple ethernet or WiFi or Radio interfaces, that each interface typically has its own IP address, and it can be important at times to indicate exactly which of the IP addresses associated with the host that you want to use as the address to send the ping packets:

• there might be multiple paths to the remote system, and it might be important to test that a specific path works
• there might be firewall issues that depends on interface
• in a system that is inside a private network, it might be important to test using an address from outside the private network, as the radio might be intended to be used from outside the private network

I try to following as you said: Enter the host machine IP as follows

dev = sdrdev('AD936x');

testConnection(dev,'192.168.3.6')

Can you take a look at the above comment and let me know your suggestions?

Thanks
