    Hello,

    First, I would suggest you move to the Vivado 2015.3/4 tools as they are more recent and those are the tools that the reference designs for that hardware target. If you do attempt to use those reference designs with the older Vivado versions you may run into issues.

    If you must do your development in Vivado 2014.4 you will need to create your own board definition file if you want to use one. I would suggest taking a look at the current smart vision development kit 2015.3/4 board definition file and compare it to the PicoZed 7015+FMC Carrier V1 board definition file for Vivado 2014.4. The board definiton files are all plain text and easy to read and edit. You could strip out the portion of the PicoZed 7015+FMC V1 2014.4 board definition files that relates to hardware on the FMC V1 board that is not on your Smart Vision carrier card and then add in the Smart Vision specific portion from the 2015.3/4 smart vision board definition files.
