BladeRF doesn't seem to work...help!

Hi all

I have a bladeRF SDR. I am using a dual boot Linux / Win 7 workstation.

When running Linux the bladeRF works fine, and all hardware is working OK.
When I reboot & run SDR Console on the Win 7 O/S SDR Console doesn't recognise the blade RF ad gives the error message:

"Nothing found, sorry"

The bladeRF is plugged into a USB 3 socket and I get response from the blade via the bladeRF CLI.

The Version of SDR Console is as follows:

File Version 1.0.0.1
Product Version 2.3 (Beta)
Dated 8th Jan 2015

Is there a later / updated version of SDR Console, does I have to carry out any additional fixes to get the bladeRF running ?

Any help appreciated !

Hi Adrian,
You did close the CLI before starting the SDR Console software ? SDR Console can not get access to the BladeRF if the CLI is started.

I myself ran into this error but on my PC I allready had the SDR Server running with the BladeRF as radio and then SDR Console also cannot access the BladeRF.

Hope it helps,

Kind regards,

Updated the software and hey presto !
