Multiple Pluto's SDRC onlys uses first one in the list.

I have 3 ADALM Pluto sdr's all set up using IP addresses. It does not matter which one I select, it only uses the first one in the list.

I guess you already read this page and also the "customizing" page that is linked from it?

I don't have a Pluto, but did you "add" and edit a new SDRC definition, one for each for the three IP addresses?

Yes, I can see the three different IP's in the list of radios.
I deleted all of them and put them back one at a time. When there is just one in the list, it works fine. If there are more than one in the list, it only connects to the first in the list.

That sounds like an issue for Simon. I rashly presume they all have different serial numbers. The definitions would distinguish what is going on via the serial numbers.

That said, basically the device speaks USB 2. That limits the interface to USB 2 or 100 Base-T speeds. Hooking up more than one Pluto to the same USB string means you must halve the maximum sample rates to have it work.

Not sure on the IP radios, but on USB SDR's (numerous Airspys on one server) you have to give it a unique name for each. Try something like:
Pluto #1
Pluto #2
Pluto #3

I ran into this on my latest server installation. Two Airspy units and forgot to give them unique names. When one was busy with a user, it gave me a radio busy error whe I attempted to connect.
