Appendix J: Xilinx tools
Xilinx programming tools are used to upgrade FPGA and CLPD code. For more information about
using this specialized equipment, contact your Clear-Com technical support representative.
The following cards and matrices can be upgraded using Xilinx tools:
• CPU card (CPLD).
• MVX-A16 (FPGA).
• E-QUE / IVC-32 / LMC-64 (FPGA).
• E-FIB (FPGA).
• E-MADI64 (FPGA).
Note:
The E-MADI64 FPGA can also be upgraded using EHX. For more information, see
11.2 Upgrading the E-MADI64 application, DSP and FPGA
code using EHX.
• Eclipse HX-PiCo matrix (FPGA).
To program the Flash PROM, you require a PC or laptop with the Xilinx iMPACT programming
software and a Xilinx Download Cable (such as platform cable USB model DLC9G)) is required.
The Xilinx programming tool, Xilinx iMPACT, may be obtained by downloading ISE WebPACK™
from: http://www.xilinx.com/xlnx/xil_sw_updates_home.jsp
If you are using:
• The red DLC10 programming box, download ISE ver 11 or later
• The black DLC9G programming box, download ISE ver 11 or later.
Note:
You must create an account at the Xilinx website, and accept a license agreement, before you can
download ISE WebPACK™.
Tip: A number of Found new hardware dialogs will display when the programming device is plugged
into the USB port of the PC or laptop. Clear-Com recommends installing the software (which also
installs the necessary drivers) before you plug in the device, to reduce the number of dialogs.
