I have a question about the firmware upload. I have a PC720 card.
Information I got from the card was:
Library Version : 1.50 build 001 FPGA A PCI Revision : 5.0 FPGA A Revision : 1.1 FPGA A Customer Nr. : 0 FPGA A Firmware Type : 238 FPGA A Has Ext. Infos : 0 CPLD Revision : 1.0 Board Serial Number : 48 User ROM Value : 1193046 FPGA B Device Type : XC7KK410T-2FXG1930C FPGA B Revision : 1.0.0 FPGA B Firmware Type : 449
Here "FPGA B Firmware Type" seems to be the design we're having for the FPGA, type beging "449".
I need to upload the new design to the flash and based on the information card gave me destination should be FPGA B, not FPGA A.
Quoted: "FLASH_B do a flash programming of the USER configuration for FPGA B (not available on PC720)."
This didn't work. Got IO error. Ok, based on the quote it shouldn't work.
Quoted: "That's correct, "-a" is the actual PC720 FPGA. This is because our devices with two FPGAs (FM680, FM780) have the PCIe/Flash interface on FPGA A, FPGA B being the processing FPGA."
If I do this:
#./4fm_upload_firmware PC720 0 -a mydesign_type449_pc720.hex
what happens to the FPGA A that haves Firmware Type 238 uploaded? Or if I just upload the new firmware with option -a (FPGA_A), in PC720 it just ends up in to the FPGA B ?
