Understanding Simulation Log File Generation

Starting with the Quartus II 14.0 software release, simulation automatically creates a log file,

altpcie_

monitor_<dev>_dlhip_tlp_file_log.log

in your simulation directory.

Simulating the Example Design

Follow these steps to simulate the Qsys system using ModelSim:
1. In a terminal window, change to the

<working_dir>/top/testbench/mentor

directory.

2. Start the ModelSim simulator by typing

vsim

.

3. To compile the simulation, type the following commands in the terminal window:

source msim_setup.tcl

(The

msim_setup.tcl

file defines aliases.

ld_debug

(The

ld_debug

command argument stops optimizations, improving visibility in the

ModelSim waveforms. )

The following figure shows the design hierarchy for the Configuration Space Bypass Example Design after

compilation.
