- Connecting to the Target Board Remotely
- If you plan to connect remotely, you ensure that the KC705 board is plugged
into a machine and you are running an hw_server application on that machine. If
you plan to connect locally, skip steps 1-5 and go directly to the Connecting to
the Target Board Locally section.
- Connect the Digilent USB JTAG cable of your KC705 board to a USB port on a Windows system.
- Ensure that the board is plugged in and powered on.
- Power cycle the board to clear the device.
- Turn DIP switch positions (pin 1 on SW11, De-bounce Enable) to the OFF position.
- Assuming you are connecting your KC705 board to a 64-bit
Windows machine and you are running the hw_server from the network
instead of your local drive, open a
cmd
prompt and type the following:<Xilinx_Install>\Vivado\2020.x\bin\hw_server
Leave this
cmd
prompt open while the hw_server is running. Note the machine name you are using. You use this later when opening a connection to this instance of the hw_server application.
