Appendix E
System Controller
The Xilinx system controller is an application that runs on a Zynq-7000 SoC at power-up on the
ZCU1285 board. The System Controller user interface (SCUI) can be downloaded from the Zynq
Ult RFSoC ZCU1285 Characterization Kit documentation page. The SCUI file
rdf0513-
zcu1285-system-controller-2019-1.zip
is associated with this user guide. The SCUI
communicates with the Zynq-7000 SoC using the Interface 1 port of the Silicon Labs USB to
Quad-UART described in the USB to Quad-UART Bridge. See the following figure.

Connecting the System Controller User
Interface
After starting the SCUI, a window opens with fields for entering information about the board (see
the following figure). These values can later be stored into EEPROM in the EEPROM Data tab. If
the EEPROM data has already been stored, only the Board and Revision fields need to be
selected.
