    51 * The IP addresses for Ethernet Port 1 (10G) on {{{sdr1-s1-lg1}}} and {{{sdr1-md1}}} were hard-coded to {{{10.117.2.1}}} and {{{10.117.3.1}}}, respectively. To access them from {{{srv1-lg1}}}, configure the network interface {{{eno1}}} as follows:
     51* The IP addresses for SFP+0 (10G) on {{{sdr1-s1-lg1}}} and {{{sdr1-md1}}} were hard-coded to {{{10.117.2.1}}} and {{{10.117.3.1}}}, respectively. To access them from {{{srv1-lg1}}}, configure the network interface {{{eno1}}} as follows:

    101 * Download and build the RENEW Sounder software **on the {{{develop}}} branch** at [https://github.com/renew-wireless/RENEWLab/ here] and follow the [https://docs.renew-wireless.org/dev-suite/design-flows/cpp/sounder/ instructions] to build it. Note that the {{{master}}} branch does not have UHD support.
    102 
    103 * Include in {{{files/usrp-bs-serials.txt}}} the IP address {{{10.118.2.2}}}, i.e., use {{{sdr2-s1-lg1}}} as the base station (BS). In {{{files/usrp-bs-only.json}}}, set {{{"channel" : "AB",}}} to enable dual-channel on {{{sdr2-s1-lg1}}}.
    104 
    105 * Similarly, in {{{files/usrp-client-only.json}}}, set {{{"sdr_id" : [ "10.118.3.2" ]}}} (i.e., use {{{sdr2-md1}}} as the user) and {{{"channel" : "AB",}}} to enable dual-channel on {{{sdr2-md1}}}.

     102==== Run the experiment ====
     103* [Terminal 1] In the first terminal, start gnuradio companion and open the example experiment that established a single tone transmission:
     104{{{#!shell
     105root@srv1-lg1:~# gnuradio-companion example_paam_tone.grc
     106}}}
     107
     108* [Terminal 2] In the second terminal, change directory to paam_api/examples/ which contains the example API scripts.
     109{{{#!shell
     110root@srv1-lg1:~# cd paam_api/examples/
     111}}}
     112
     113* [Terminal 2] First, start PAAM #1 (rfdev2-1) in TX mode with H-polarization using 4 antenna elements on IC 1, and configure the TX beamforming direction to be in the broadside (0,0). Check the current consumption on 2v7_1 and make sure IC1 has been successfully initialized (e.g., 2v7_1 has a current consumption of 1.026A in the example below).

     159* [Terminal 2] Similarly, start PAAM #2 (rfdev2-2) in RX mode with H-polarization using 4 antenna elements on IC 2, and configure the RX beamforming direction to be in the broadside (0,0). Check the current consumption on 2v7_2 and make sure IC2 has been successfully initialized (e.g., 2v7_2 has a current consumption of 0.821A in the example below).
