Install and Setup the Software Tools on Your Host Computer
In order to use your USRP B200mini/B200mini-i/B205mini-i, you must have the software tools correctly installed
and configured on your host computer. A step-by-step guide for doing this is available at "Getting Started", on
the USRP B200mini/B200mini-i/B205mini-i product page, or on the Ettus Research Knowledge Base.
If you have a USB stick with the LiveUSB SDR Environment installed on it, then you may boot your host computer
from that. The LiveUSB SDR Environment does not require anything to be installed on your host computer,
and contains a Linux-based environment with the UHD software and the GNU Radio framework already installed.
More information about the LiveUSB SDR environment is available at the LiveUSB SDR Environment Product
Page on the Ettus Research Knowledge Base.
Connect the USRP B200mini/B200mini-i/B205mini-i to the Host Computer
The included USB 3.0 cable provides power and data connectivity for the USRP B200mini/B200mini-i/B205mini-
i. The host-side of the cable must be plugged into either a USB 2.0 or 3.0 port. Note that the USB 2.0 link
provides less bandwidth than the USB 3.0 link. More information about USB bandwidth constraints and power
considerations is available on the USRP B200mini/B200mini-i/B205mini-i Product Page on the Ettus Research
Knowledge Base.
