configurePlutoRadio

Configure ADALM-PLUTO radio firmware

Add-On Required: This feature requires the Communications Toolbox Support Package for Analog Devices ADALM-Pluto Radio add-on.

Syntax

result = configurePlutoRadio(chipset)

result = configurePlutoRadio(chipset,id)

Description

result = configurePlutoRadio(chipset) configures the ADALM-PLUTO radio to operate in the specified chipset mode. The radio must be connected to host computer USB port 0 to use this syntax.

result = configurePlutoRadio(chipset,id) configures the ADALM-PLUTO radio to operate in the specified chipset mode and radio identifier. The radio must be connected to computer running this command.

Examples

Configure ADALM-PLUTO radio

Connect one ADALM-PLUTO radio to the host via a USB interface. Execute configurePlutoRadio with the input argument 'AD9364' to change radio configuration to operate over the wider bandwidth and higher sampling rate.

configurePlutoRadio('AD9364')

ans = 
  1 

Configure ADALM-PLUTO Radio at USB Port 1

Connect one ADALM-PLUTO radio to the host via a USB interface port 1. Execute configurePlutoRadio with the input arguments 'AD9364' and 'usb:1' to change radio configuration to operate over the wider bandwidth and higher sampling rate for the radio connected to USB port 1 of the host computer.

configurePlutoRadio('AD9364','usb:1')

ans = 
  1 

Input Arguments

chipset — RF transceiver firmware configuration

'AD9363' | 'AD9364'

RF transceiver firmware configuration to be used by the PLUTO radio, specified as 'AD9363' or 'AD9364'. configurePlutoRadio configures the PLUTO radio to the specified firmware configuration.

RF Transceiver	LO Tuning Range	Bandwidth
AD9363 (factory default)	325 – 3800 MHz	20 MHz
AD9364	70 – 6000 MHz	56 MHz

Note

Analog Devices^® qualifies the PLUTO radio over a tuning range of 325 MHz to 3.8 GHz. This support package enables you to use the PLUTO radio outside the qualified tuning range by configuring the radio to operate using the AD9364 firmware. To extend the frequency range, at the MATLAB^® command prompt, enter configurePlutoRadio('AD9364').

id — USB port identifier

'usb:0' (default) | char vector

USB port identifier, specified as a character vector indicating the host computer USB port the radio being configured is connected to.

Example: 'usb:1', indicates that the radio connected to host computer USB port 1 will be configured.

Data Types: char

Output Arguments

result — Outcome of ADALM-PLUTO radio configuration

1 | 0

Outcome of ADALM-PLUTO radio configuration, returned as 1 if successful or 0 if unsuccessful.
