Trying to get off the ground

Former Member

I've downloaded and installed the Vivado 2013.2 release. It loads up but I can't do the Speedway initial training because it doesn't let me add an "Embedded Source" to the project.

I've run the Speedway thing with PlanAhead and it fails with the unable to load qvirtex6 error. I'm running 14.4 of XPS, downloading the 14.5 update.

How can I debug what is going wrong?

    So I downloaded and installed the 14.4 ISE only to discover that there is now a 14.6 out. Downloading that while I work.

    I've been trying to do the Speedway training which is a bit out of date now but I'm fumbling along. I've got Hello World in the SDK compiling, but now when I try to run it is says there is a problem talking to the JTAG port.

    I've gone over the jumpers for the Zynq board several times, I've got one micro USB plugged into the port next to power marked JTAG and one plugged into the port marked UART. My system sees the "Digilent USB Device" and the Cypress UART. I am assuming that "Digilent USB" is the JTAG device although my Win7/64 devices page doesn't know if that is what it is.

    MIO6/5/4/3/2 are all jumpered to Ground per the Lab's instructions. The Green LED marked power comes on when I switch on the board. The Digilent Device is using the FTDI USB Driver according to properties.

    It feels like I am really close here. Just a little bit of time on someone's part might get me off the ground and building systems with this amazing hardware. Help me obi-wan :-)
