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.
