HAD FPGA Updates
HAD FPGA Updates
HAD (Host Address Decoder) FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) updates for the GV K-
Frame XP are to be performed by qualified personnel only, e.g. an EIC (Engineer In Charge).
Each CPU, Image Store, Controller, M/E, Video I/O IP, PTP Mezzanine boards, etc. have a PCI
Express endpoint for communication with the host processor. These PCI endpoints are
governed by the HAD (Host Address Decoder) FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array).
Software updates can include firmware updates for these endpoint HADs.
When to Update the HAD FPGA
A HAD update is required if HAD out-of-date notifications appear in the menu
approximately five minutes after the Frame is booted. A software upgrade or board
replacement if the board has an older HAD version, can cause the out-of-date firmware
notification to be displayed. It is recommended that spare CPU/Image Store boards are
upgraded before use. Out-of-date firmware notification can also be seen from a connected
serial console or SSH connection.
NOTE: The default username for an SSH connection is “user” and the default password is
“gvuser”.
