USRP B200 doesn't detect after installing the USRP Matlab Packages

18 views (last 30 days)
Hello Everyone , I have got a new NI USRP B200 Software defined Radio. I was trying to configure it using MATLAB through this link . http://www.mathworks.com/help/supportpkg/usrpradio/index.html
After downloading the required packages , It asks me to connect my Hardware . After connecting the hardware , It should suppose to install the necessary drivers automatically . But , i believe , it is not doing so .
After Installation , When i enter "findsdru" command , It returns with "No devices found " .
Does anybody had the same problem and can give me a solution to fix it. ???
I have gone through the " *COMMON PROBLEMS AND FIXES *.. but it doesn't help much for device detection issues.

I am having what I think is the same problem.
From the command-line UHD tools, the uhd_find_devices.exe and uhd_usrp_probe.exe work fine. They detect the device connected to USB-2 port, and load the FPGA image.
They do not detect the device if connected to the USB-3 port on my computer. Why?
And in Matlab, findsdru return "No devices found".
I have run the device fine with GNU-Radio using the Ettus provided DVD boot image. That works fine on the USB-2 and USB-3 ports, and all the command-line tools and GNU-Radio functions work fine.
I would like to use with Matlab. I have version R2016a and followed the procedure to load the hardware support package.

No, please do not repost questions that have not received immediate answers. At most post a reminder as a comment.
If you need a fast answer to something then you should be opening a support case. This MATLAB Answers forum is answered by volunteers, not by Mathworks staff, and volunteers have their own schedule (or, in my case, complete lack of schedule.)
With a new product like this, you are unlikely to find a volunteer who knows the answer. No-one sends us products to test :(

Common Problems and Fixes section in the documentation has several failure modes and possible solutions:
Can you try them and report back your findings? One common problem is the reliability of the USB3 port. We found that in some cases just unplugging and plugging the radio a couple times solves the issue. Also, please check that your USB3 controller is one of the Ettus Research recommended ones:
