• Creating a System with Qsys
This document provides an introduction to Qsys.
Running Qsys
1. Choose Programs > Altera > Quartus II> (Windows Start menu) to run the
Quartus II software. Alternatively, you can also use the Quartus II Web Edition software.
2. On the File menu, select New, then Qsys System File.
3. Open the ep_g2x4_avmm128.qsys example design.
The following figure shows a Qsys system that includes the Transceiver Reconfiguration Controller and
the Altera PCIe Reconfig Driver IP Cores. The Transceiver Reconfiguration Controller performs dynamic
reconfiguration of the analog transceiver settings to optimize signal quality. You must include these
components to the Qsys system to run successfully in hardware.
