III-53

6.2.3

Implementation

1. Open Xilinx EDK
2. Open project:

<IPInst_dir>\ example_designs\LX150T_AXI\system.xmp

3. Generate Bitstream
4. Export Design
5. Launch SDK
6. In SDK, select menu File

– New – Application Project

7.

Enter a project name, and select project template “BECKHOFF EtherCAT LX150T AXI”

8. Select Next, then Finish.
9. Wait until the projects are built automatically, or select menu Project

– Build All

10. Update Bitstream with application image and download to FPGA by selecting menu Xilinx Tools

Program FPGA

Result is the file “download.bit” (= “system.bit” + “<application>.elf”) in the implementation

folder of the EDK project.

Downloadable configuration file

An already synthesized time limited configuration file

LX150T_AXI_Demo_V3_00c_time_limited.bit

based on this example design can be found in the

<IPInst_dir>\example_designs\LX150T_AXI\

folder. After expiration of about 1 hour the design quits its operation. These files must only be used for
evaluation purposes, any distribution is not allowed.
