SMT8081 User Manual

Software applications.

3L application.

In a sub-folder labelled 3L (directory SMT6600\Systems\SMT8081), you will find a C
(SMT8081.c), a configuration (SMT8081.cfg) and a make (nmake) files.

In a DOS prompt window, simply type nmake to generate the 3L application file,
which can be loaded into the SMT395-VP30 by using the 3L Server (3L Diamond
needs to be installed first).

This application allows the user to execute simple commands such as configuring the
ADC (output format and scale), the clock synthesizers, clock routing, capturing data,
etc.

Description of the functions in the test software menu.

The 3L application provided with the system allows the following option. Some will
prompt for a value.

FPGA CONFIG - Pull INIT low - for reconfiguration (new bitstream)”

This command is used to reprogram the SMT338-VP FPGA with a different/new
bitstream. This command is used prior to ‘FPGA CONFIG - Configure FPGA - for
sending bitstream
’.
