Arria-V-ADC-Ethernet-software

Description

Contains the software for the Nios II processor in the Arria-V-ADC-Ethernet project. This works with both the verilog and VHDL versions of the code.

The software sets up a TCP/IP socket, which can be connected to via Telnet

Setup

There are scripts in the scripts/ subdirectory to assist with running the software

Change to the scripts directory:

cd scripts/

Generate the board support package:

./generateBSP.sh

Make the nios project:

cd ../ADC_Socket/
make
cd ../scripts/

Run the software on the board:

programNios.sh

(Optional) Open the nios terminal:

nios2-terminal

Usage

The socket can be connected to via telnet:

telnet <ipaddress> 30

These commands can be sent from the telnet command line:

ACQUIRE      - output most recent trigger
TRIG:SLOPE:  - Set trigger slope: POS or NEG
TRIG:SOURCE: - Set trigger source: SELF or EXT
DELAY:       - Set delay: ON or OFF
MENU         - display this menu 
QUIT         - quit 

The python scripts in Arria-V-ADC-Ethernet-scripts can also be used to connect to the socket.
