Set Up the Hardware

Set up the hardware using the following steps:
1. Connect the Bitec daughter card to the FPGA development board.

2. Connect the development board to your PC using a USB cable.

Note: The FPGA development board has an On-Board USB-Blaster

II connection. If your version of

the board does not have this connection, you can use an external USB-Blaster cable. Refer to the

documentation for your board for more information.

3. Connect a DisplayPort cable from the DisplayPort TX on the Bitec HSMC daughter card to a Display‐

Port monitor (do not power up the monitor).

4. Power-up the development board.

5. Connect one end of a DisplayPort cable to your PC (do not connect the other end to anything).
