miri_sdr(1)

miri_sdr1

An i/q recorder for mirics sdr devices

Usage

mirisdr [-f freq] [OPTIONS] [output file]

Overview

Software for the Mirics MSi2500 + MSi001 SDR platform

In-Phase and Quadrature Phase data can faithfully represent all of the information in a band of frequencies centered on a carrier signal frequency.

Usage

This program captures information from a band of frequencies and outputs the data in a form useful to other software radio programs.

Options

-f frequency_to_tune_to [Hz]
-m sample format (default: auto)

2: Bulk (maximum 333Mbit/s, depends on controller type)
-i IF mode (default: ZERO)
0: ZERO
450000: 450 kHz
1620000: 1620kHz
2048000: 2048kHz

600000: 600kHz
1536000: 1536kHz
5000000: 5MHz
6000000: 6MHz
7000000: 7MHz
8000000: 8MHz
-s samplerate (default: 2048000 Hz)
-d device_index (default: 0)
-T device_type device variant (default: 0)

-g gain (default: 0 for auto)
-b output_block_size (default: 16 * 16384)
-S force sync output (default: async)
filename

(a '-' dumps samples to stdout)

Examples

Example: To tune to 392.0 MHz, and set the sample-rate to 1.8 MS/s, use:

./mirisdr /tmp/capture.bin -s 1.8e6 -f 392e6

to record samples to a file or to forward the data to a fifo.

If the device can't be opened, make sure you have the appropriate rights to access the device (install udev-rules from the repository, or run it as root).
