Perform the following steps to run the software application.
Important: Make sure that the hardware is powered on and a Digilent Cable or a USB Platform Cable is connected to the host PC. Also, ensure that a USB cable is connected to the UART port of the ZCU102 board.
  1. Launch Vitis unified software platform.
  2. Set workspace to vmulti_scaler_example.sdk folder in prompted window. The Vitis project opens automatically (if a Welcome page shows up, close that page).
  3. Download the bitstream into the FPGA by selecting Xilinx Tools > Program FPGA. The Program FPGA dialog box opens.
  4. Ensure that the Bitstream field shows the bitstream file generated by Tcl script, and then click Program.
    Note: The DONE LED on the board turns green if the programming is successful.
  5. A terminal program (Hyper Terminal or PuTTY) is needed for UART communication. Open the program, choose appropriate port, set baud rate to 115200, and establish the serial port connection.
  6. Select and right-click the application vmulti_scaler_example_design in the Project_Explorer panel.
  7. Select Run As > Launch on Hardware (GDB).
  8. Select Binaries and Qualifier in the window, and click OK.
The example design test results are shown in terminal program. For more information, visit https://www.amd.com/en/products/software/adaptive-socs-and-fpgas/vitis.html.

When executed on the board, the operations are listed in readme.txt in the examples folder. The video input tested are 1080p and 720p.
