Pavel,

Thanks very much for responding - here's what I'm doing with my SW loads...

I first take a microSD card that is unformatted and format it using BOOTICE for FAT32. This produces a blank SD card. I then took your ecosystem from your website (ecosystem-0.95-1-6deb253-sdr-transceiver-wide) and copied the RAR file onto the blank microSD card. Then I take the RAR file and un-RAR it by extracting the files from the ecosystem and allowing them to populate the blank microSD card. When that's done, I usually use TeraTerm under Windows to check to see if there's a filesystem on there. I will do a 'ls' and see nothing, but then do a 'cd ..' and then I'll see subdirectories in the format of a Linux filesystem. I also noted that the IP address of the Red Pitaya is 192.168.1.2. Once I check that I'll get out of TeraTerm and then start PowerSDR mRX PS under Windows. Before I start the Red Pitaya it's in the HERMES mode and the app's IP address is 10.10.30.100. I tried launching with those default settings and the PowerSDR app will pop a window that says "Error Starting HPSDR Hardware, is it connected and powered". I've tried changing the top IP address from 10.10.30.100 to 192.168.1.2 and restart the PowerSDR application from the beginning. Still has the same issue - cannot start. I've even tried to start it on PiHPSDR the same way and it will not start. One thing I've noticed is that the old SW loads there is a yellow light on the Red Pitaya that will blink at 1 second interval, but with the new SW load I'm not seeing that.

I've even done everything above, but I downloaded the same transceiver app from the Red Pitaya Marketplace and did all the things I've done above and it's still not starting.

Here is the log from the Serial monitor from the Red Pitaya when it boots:

What's your opinion on this, Pavel..? I'm REALLY stumped why I cannot get this to start in PowerSDR in Windows or PiHPSDR, but my old SW works like a charm on both platforms. I REALLY need the CODEC to work with my Red Pitaya for my project here...I'm SO CLOSE to making this work but the Red Pitaya side is not working.

Your input on this will be GREATLY GREATLY appreciated, Pavel - hope to hear from you soon.
