hi there, i have some question about the Tutorial "Introduction the WARP FPGA Board" and "Introduction to Xilinx Platform Studio":
1. question: i can use only ONE WARP Board during the Tutorial "Introduction the WARP FPGA Board" or "Introduction to Xilinx Platform Studio", right?
2. question: i got some different configuration values, wenn i launch the Xilinx Platform Studio, different from here: http://warp.rice.edu/svn/WARP/Documenta … rd_v2.html
for example, in processes configuration, as DEFAULT i have
Processor Clock Frequency: 100 MHz
Bus Clock Frequency: 100 MHz
On-Chip Memory: None
wenn i choice the Processor Clock Frequency 160 MHz just like in tutorial, then i can get the Bus Clock Frequency 80 MHz or 53,33 MHz, not 40 MHz(like in tutorial), how can i do this in the right way? and should i choice 64 KB as On-Chip Memory?
3. question: after all configuration steps for XPS (the tutorial "Introduction to Xilinx Platform Studio"), i get following erro messages:
ERROR:EDK:1692 - Invalid target device 'xc4vfx100'
ERROR:EDK:3468 - Invalid device information specified in the XMP file.
wenn i run the Tutorial "Introduction the WARP FPGA Board"----''Communicating with the Board (IMPACT)'', after i launch the "IDCODE Looping", everything seems right, except the "Get Device Checksum" in iMPACT Processes. the second device in the chain (an xc4vfx100 FPGA) is highlighted, and then doppelclick the "Get Device Checksum", i always get following erro messages too:
// *** BATCH CMD : Checksum -p 2
INFO:iMPACT:1353 - ACD entry CHECKSUM_PROGRESS_COUNT not found for device family xc4vfx100.
INFO:iMPACT:2488 - The operation did not complete successfully.
but i can still run the WARPLab-1 exercises, for example, warplab_mimo_2x2_GUI.m without any erros, can anyone help me? thanks!

What version of the Xilinx tools are you using? It appears that the Xilinx tools are not seeing the Virtex-4 as a known device.

thanks for your help
-Xilinx ISE Design Suite 12.2
-Xilinx Platform Studio (Application Version: Build EDK_MS2.63c+0)
-Xilinx Software Development Kit (Release Version: Release 12.2 Build SDK_MS2.63c)
-iMPACT (M.63c)

As far as I can tell the 12.2 version of the Xilinx tools should support the Virtex-4. Make sure you have any available service packs installed. If not, try reinstalling the tools. If you have access to an earlier version (10 or 11) try installing those.

Do we need a special Xilinx Lic to complete this example? I am getting this warning when trying to Generate a BitStream
WARNING:Security:9b - No 'XPS' feature version 2012.12 was available for part

A paid Xilinx license is required to implement new hardware designs for the FPGA on WARP v3. A paid license is not required to use the SDK with an existing hardware design (i.e. you can modify the C code for the template projects or the WARPLab and 802.11 Reference Designs without a paid license).

Hello, I have the Xilinx Vivado System Edition license, I am completing the Intro to XPS. I have the following error when on step 11: Generate BitStream

I haven't gone through the ISE licensing process in a long while, so I'm not positive what the latest process is.
Based on a few similar posts to the Xilinx forums (here and here), it may be necessary to request the ISE license from Xilinx using the order number from your Vivado license purchase.
I think the right way to submit this is:
-Go to https://www.xilinx.com/support.html#serviceportal
-Click Sign In, login with the Xilinx account that owns the Vivado license
-Click Licensing, Software & IP Licensing, Product Not in Account
That should present a form you can fill in with your details.

Quick followup, I just followed this process for one of our Vivado licenses. It worked - the Xilinx rep responded to the service request after an hour or so, and "ISE System Edition Node Locked License" showed up in my "Certificate Based Licenses" list.

Success. Thank you :)
