Serial Terminal
Each demo that comes with the GUI
is identified by the design version set
in the dat file. Version numbers 4,6,
and 7 are reserved. User should not
use these design version numbers
during dat file generation of their
custom designs. GUI reads the
current design version on the Kit and
loads the appropriate FPGA Demo on
a successful connection. For custom
designs, a generic ‘Serial Terminal’ is
loaded instead of FPGA Demo. This
tab enables the user to communicate
to the FPGA over Serial protocol.
