The UHD code itself for GPIO triggering is fairly straightforward. /* Configure GPIO-0 pin*/ usrp->set_gpio_attr("FP0", "CTRL", 0x00); usrp->set_gpio_attr("FP0", "DDR", 0x01); /* Set rise and fall times */ usrp->set_command_time(TIME_A); usrp->set_gpio_attr("FP0", "OUT", 0x01); usrp->set_command_time(TIME_B); usrp->set_gpio_attr("FP0", "OUT", 0x00); I tested the frame trigger using the B210 with osmo-trx in a new signal generator application (to be announced shortly), which works fine. But, when I attempt to trigger with full-duplex osmo-trx, the trigger becomes unstable for reasons that I do not fully understand. I'm still looking into the cause. So right now we can generate a frame trigger for the BTS downlink, but, unfortunately, not while the uplink receiver is enabled. -TT
