Introduction
2. Set the IP address of the host PC to 192.168.1.100. Return the IP address of the PC back
to its original setting after running the demonstration.
Note:
The demonstration uses a hard-coded MAC address and a fixed IP address of 192.168.1.10
and does not connect to the regular LAN network using DHCP. Do not connect more than one board
to the same network segment.
Running the Video Demonstration
To run the video demonstration, copy and unzip the demonstration package files from the
Web to the host machine and use the following steps:
Note:
Please note that the package has a deep hierarchy structure. So, unzip the package at a user
location such that the overall path length is smaller.
1. If the KC705 board is not already powered on, plug in the power adapter to local AC
power. Plug the 12V power cable into the board connector on J49. Turn on the power
by switching the SW15 to the ON position.
2. Open and configure a serial communications terminal utility program with these
settings:
•Baud Rate: 9600
• Data: 8 bit
•Parity: None
•Stop: 1 bit
• Flow Control: None
Note:
Refer to Appendix A, Communicating with the KC705 USB-UART for setting up the
UART communication.
3. Open a command shell with the Xilinx Design tools environment settings. Refer to
Appendix B, Installation and Licensing of Xilinx Design Tools for Xilinx tool chain
installation and licensing help.
Note:
To set environment variables, run the settings32.bat file located in the Xilinx
installation area. At the command prompt, type
C:\Xilinx\14.x\ISE_DS\settings32.bat (for Windows XP) or
C:\Xilinx\14.x\ISE_DS\settings64.bat (for Windows 7) and press
Enter.
4. Go to the unzipped directory of the demonstration package and execute these
commands to download the design and connect to the MicroBlaze processor:
$ cd KC705_Embedded_Kit/Video_Demo/ready_for_download
$ xmd
XMD% fpga -f download.bit
This command downloads the hardware bitstream into the FPGA but does not
download the software application:
XMD% connect mb mdm
This command connects to the MicroBlaze processor debug module:
XMD% dow Video_Demo.elf
XMD% con
