11.4 Upgrading the E-MADI64 FPGA using the Xilinx
tool set
Note:
Upgrading the E-QUE card FPGA using Xilinx tools requires specialized equipment. For
more information about the Xilinx programming tools, see Appendix J:Xilinx tools.
Note:
Ensure that the Xilinx tool set is Version 11 or later.
To upgrade the Xilinx FPGAs on an E-MADI64 card:
1. Ensure that the latest versions of the Xilinx programming tools have been
installed.
Tip: For more information about installing Xilinx programming tools, see
Appendix J:Xilinx tools.
2. Obtain the latest version of the Xilinx device firmware from the Drivers USB:
Drivers USB > ECLIPSE DRIVERS > Omega-Median-Delta > xxxxxx - E-
MADI FPGA > xxxxxx.mcs and xxxxxx.cfi
Where xxxxxxx represents the product / file number.
Note:
When upgrading the E-MADI64 FPGA, both the *.mcs and *.cfi file are required.
The *.cfi and *.mcs file are available from the same location. The user does not
have to do anything else, as the tools find the files.
3. Connect the USB connector of the download cable (Platform cable USB DLC9G /
DLC10) to the USB port of the PC.
4. Connect the 14way IDC header to CON4000.
5. Power up the UUT and start the iMPACT programming tool.
6. In Automatically create and save a project, select No.
7. In Load Project, select Cancel.
8. In Flows, double click Boundary Scan. Right click the main window and select
