You can edit the graph code, for example, to add or modify constraints. You can also explore the graph code by editing the kernel configuration parameters (such as window size, window margin, and so on), and re-compiling. Vitis Model Composer generates a Makefile allowing you to easily accomplish this by running the following command.

make all

This command compiles an AI Engine graph using the default aiecompiler target and runs the simulation using aiesimulator. It also compares the output of the simulator with the golden output. This command also launches the Vitis analyzer, based on the option selected in the Hub block.

To do this, you need to source the settings64.csh or settings64.sh from <install_dir>/<version>/Model_Composer.
