Is it possible to use USRP as a function generator ? If yes can any one please provide me the sample VI. I want to generate Sine wave, Square wave, Triangular wave etc. Also I need the option to vary Frequency and Voltage. Is it possible to implement Function Generator mechanism on USRP using LabView? Please guide.

Hello josephkirmani,
When you say you want to use the USRP as a function generator, do you mean you want to be able to output and send a function over a certain RF carrier frequency? If so, I think you might find the example below helpful, it uses frequency modulation (must have the modulation toolkit installed) in order to embed a signal of your choosing (square, sine, triangle…) into a FM modulated waveform to be transmitted over a specified carrier frequency. Just switch out the Basic Multi Tone.vi for your preferred function from the Waveform Generation Palette. If that’s not what you are trying to do, please clarify.
