Pluto-3 Wont run from boot-PROM

Postby SeanBedford » Wed Mar 24, 2010 2:04 pm

Hi

We just got a Pluto-3 to replace the Pluto-2 that our project had outgrown. The board configures and works perfectly. The boot-PROM programs and verifies with no errors, but does not run after a power off and back on just two dim LED's.

We are using txdi with the 2009 software that came with the pluto-2, has the software been upgraded?

Any other ideas as to why I'm having this problem will be welcomed.

Regards

Sean

Make sure you are using the latest FPGAconf and also check chapter 18.2 of the doc.

Hi thanks for getting back to me. I checked everything in the manual before posting.

I am using 2.11.00 (not the one that came with the pluto-3) Because its a University project it was ordered throught the Universities order system so someone in admin some where probably got the e-mail with the new one in and deleted it.

Could you tell me if this is an old version and if it is how I can get hold of the latest.

Thanks

Yes, this is old - just email KNJN and they'll send you the latest software.
