Dear all,
We make synchronization between two N210(both of them with ubx40) with MIMO
cable.When we restarted program,the phase offset would changed 180°(no
other values) regularly.
Do you have any suggestions?
thank you.
best regards
Jon

Dear Jon,

as per http://files.ettus.com/manual/page_sync.html#sync_phase_lo ,
phase sync with UBX is only 100% possible on the X3xx platform, not on
N210 – as far as I remember, the 180° (==sign) ambiguity is what stops
us from saying "it's fully supported".

There's no hardware remedy to this :( you'll have to circumvent that,
possibly by estimating the correct sign in software, if what you're
trying to do allows that.

Best regards,

Marcus
