QuickStart

This setup helps you create standalone GET software releases which you can load and test without overwriting your old settings.

Storing misc data in Flash

Make sure CoBo is connected to JTAG and powered up. To store the above information in NOR flash. You should have Xilinx EDK/SDK installed. Start Xilinx command prompt environment (if you are in GNU/Linux just source the settings.sh file) if you are using Windows, go to start → Xilinx Design Tools → Accessories → ISE Design Suite command prompt, once it is launched

Change Directory to the folder where the configuration files (attached) are stored e.g. C:\CoBos_Info\configure

If you want to try a firmware just start xmd by typing xmd in Xilinx shells/command prompt Then type: fpga –f download.bit This should download the bitstream and immediately start the vxworks OS.
