CIPS is a very flexible and can be configured in several different ways. CIPS IP enables configuration of many operating parameters. There are two Design Flows available for configuring these parameters. The two flows, based on the archetype of the two traditional user persona, guide you as per the predetermined presets. These two flows do not alter the expert users complete freedom in the configuration order and options. They are in fact an addition to help and guide you. These CIPS presets are designed to allow you to make quick configurations. Currently, no domain is powered off when the PL subsystem is selected; the options are simply hidden in the GUI to help you concentrate on the PL subsystem settings.
| Design Flow | Description |

| PL Subsystem |
This flow configures only the vital components to use the programmable
logic (PL) domain of the Versal
device. When this flow is selected, only the Platform Management
Controller (PMC) is configured as it is necessary for initialization
of the Versal device.
Note: All other device domains
settings (for example, PS or CPM) are disabled in this
flow.
For example, if the design targets the programmable logic exclusively and does not use any other domain, select this flow. |
| Full System | This flow configures all domains on the Versal device. All available domains on the device are shown and available for configuration. |
