\tableofcontents
\section install_win Installation on Windows
We provide UHD software installers for Windows users who do not wish
to install UHD from source.
\subsection install_win_libusb LibUSBx
All Windows installers are built with LibUSBx to enable USB3 support.
\subsection install_win_installer Installer Packages
Installer packages are built from release tags of the maint branch.
Please find the latest installer here: http://files.ettus.com/binaries/uhd/latest_release
Older installers of all previous releases can be downloaded from: http://files.ettus.com/binaries/uhd/ (browse to the desired release).
\subsection install_win_post Post-Install Tasks
Using a USB-based device?
- Download and install Windows UHD USB Drivers: http://files.ettus.com/binaries/misc/erllc_uhd_winusb_driver.zip
- \ref transport_usb_installwin
Install the MSVC Redistributable Package:
- Download <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=a7b7a05e-6de6-4d3a-a423-37bf0912db84
">MSVC Redistributable Package</a>
\subsection install_win_source Building from source
You can build UHD software from source. There are two choices of compilers for Windows users:
- Microsoft Visual Studio Express.
+ Users can develop with the free version.
- MinGW
+ An alternative to using a Microsoft compiler.
Refer to \ref build_instructions_windows
\section install_linux Installation on Linux
\subsection install_linux_pkgmgr Using your package manager
Most distributions provide UHD as part of their package management.
On Debian and Ubuntu systems, this will install the base UHD library, all headers
and build-specific files, as well as utilities:
sudo apt-get install libuhd-dev libuhd003 uhd-host
On Fedora systems, an equivalent command would be:
sudo yum install uhd uhd-devel
On other distributions, please refer to your package manager's documentation.
\subsection install_linux_ourbins Using binaries provided by Ettus Research
We provide UHD binary installers for Ubuntu and Fedora users for every stable release.
Typically, we will provide binaries for latest two LTS versions of Ubuntu, and for the
latest two versions of Fedora.
The latest versions of these binaries can be downloaded from here: http://files.ettus.com/binaries/uhd_stable/latest_release/
\subsubsection install_linux_ourbins_ubuntu Ubuntu
Copy and paste these commands into your terminal. This will install UHD software as well as allow you to receive package updates.
sudo bash -c 'echo "deb http://files.ettus.com/binaries/uhd/repo/uhd/ubuntu/`lsb_release -cs` `lsb_release -cs` main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ettus.list'
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -t `lsb_release -cs` uhd
\subsubsection install_linux_ourbins_fedora Fedora
\b Note: You might want to run the following command if you're updating repositories:
yum clean metadata all
Create the file /etc/yum.repos.d/ettus.repo. Copy this into the file:
[ettus-uhd-stable-repo]
name=Ettus Research - UHD Stable $releasever-$basearchthon serial timeout
baseurl=http://files.ettus.com/binaries/uhd/repo/uhd/fedora/$releasever/$basearch
gpgcheck=0
Run the following commands:
sudo yum --enablerepo='ettus-uhd-stable-repo' install uhd
\subsection install_linux_pybombs Using PyBOMBS
This is an automated way of installing UHD from source. See also \ref build_pybombs.
\section install_osx Installation on Mac OS X
\section install_osx_macports Via MacPorts
We recommend using MacPorts and actively support UHD development on OS X via this method.
Using MacPorts, the correct hardware device images are automatically installed for you,
and there are no post install tasks. WIth a single command, you can be up and running in short order.
If you do not already have MacPorts installed, you will need to install it first. Make sure to follow the MacPorts shell environment changes needed such that MacPorts installed executables are found before all others. These are the only changes to the shell environment needed to execute any MacPorts-installed executable. Setting any DYLD environment variable (e.g., DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH) for general use is highly discouraged, because doing so, in our experience, leads to problems down the road that are very difficult to diagnose. OSX provides robust means for correcting DYLD-based issues even after dependencies are installed.
Once MacPorts is installed, UHD and all of its dependencies can be installed by executing
sudo port install uhd
The latest developments in UHD can be installed via
sudo port install uhd-devel
Please note that the uhd-devel port, while tested for basic compilation and functionality, is not a formal release and hence should be considered beta software which might contain bugs or major issues.
