PlutoSDR not working after external clock

[Argonghost]

Hi @mhennerich @tfcollins
I have a similar problem to the one in this thread. When i tried to use an external GPS clock with 40MHz output, and injected it to the pluto's CLK_IN and changed the xo_correction setting in the config.txt as per the instructions in link above, i now get this persisting error in PyADI:

Traceback (most recent call last):

the pluto was working perfectly fine before. How can i reset back to factory settings ? also, what is the correct way to properly introduce external clock

Copy the plutosdr-fw-v0.38.zip as is onto the mass storage drive. Don't unzip it, etc.
This will reset to the default environment.

Regarding external clock please see here: https://wiki.analog.com/university/tools/pluto/devs/booting#examples

hi @mhennerich

So when i set refclk_source back to "internal" everything works fine and no issues in PyADI. However, when i try to follow the instructions in https://wiki.analog.com/university/tools/pluto/devs/booting#examples I still get the error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

I've seen in the AD wiki pages that issues regarding external GPS clocks have been addresses and solved before, but the threads were more in depth (regardin GPIO's and and device tree etc).

can you please help me

thanks

Please SSH to Pluto and run the command dmesg. Paste the output here

This is the output i get:

when running my code in PyADI after setting external refclk i still get the error i mentioned earlier :(

[tfcollins]

Transceiver looks fine. Can you do 2 things.

1. Verify the URI is correct. Which one are you using?
2. Provide the output of this command:

iio_attr -u <uri of device> -d

[Argonghost]

@tfcollins

iio_attr -u 192.168.2.1 -d
Unable to create IIO context 192.168.2.1: Function not implemented (38)

[Argonghost]

@tfcollins

since everything works perfectly fine when redefine refclk_source to be internal , could it be possible that this is due to the pluto not receiving external clock input to be with?

Because im using the Leo Bodnar GPS external clock, and from i what naively know it only starts to output square waves when there's a PLL lock with a satellite. and as per the current status of the clock now , this is what i get :

9E1F0B95ED /dev/hidraw1: SAT unlocked PLL locked Loss: 1

implying that there is not satellite lock and whence no square wave output of 40 MHz. is it possible that cold boot of the this type of clock itself takes time?

[mhennerich]

Was the dmesg with internal or external clock?

[Argonghost]

@mhennerich this is the output with external clock:

This means that the AD9361 device failed with error.
It's likely that the expected clock wasn't present or it was outside of technical specification.
This of course leads to the fact that you can't access this device from python afterwards...

I also tried setting xo_correction to 40000000 in the config.txt file. According to https://ez.analog.com/adieducation/university-program/f/q-a/560517/pluto-rev-d-off-frequency-with-bodnar-external-reference-a-config-issue/465787 i shouldnt need to do that right?

[mhennerich]

When you switch from internal to external you also need to specify the external clock.
Did you do that?
Can you post #cat /sys/kernel/debug/clk/clk_summary of your external case?

@mhennerich

it just worked now. strangely,

i did fw_setenv attr_val ad9364 and now my PyADI script works perfectly fine even though the GPS clock doesn't seem to be locked into a satellite as per:

9E1F0B95ED  /dev/hidraw1: SAT unlocked  PLL locked    Loss: 1

is it because of AD9364 ???
