Configuring the DAG card

Introduction

Configuring the DAG 7.5G4 card ready for capturing data requires the following steps:

•

Setting up the FPGA

•

Preparing the DAG card for use

(page )

•

Configuring the DAG Card

(page )

•

Viewing the DAG card statistics

(page )

Once the DAG 7.5G4 is configured you can start capturing data, see

Using your DAG card to

capture data

(page ) for details on capturing data.

Before configuring the DAG card

Before configuring the FPGA, you should ensure that:

•

dagmem

has been run and memory allocated to each installed DAG card.

•

dagload

has been run so that all DAG drivers have been installed.

Refer to the

Installing the drivers

section for the required Operating system in

EDM04-01 DAG

Software Installation Guide

for the further details.

Firmware images

The following lists the features available on each firmware image available on this DAG card.

FPGA image

(Software version string)

TR-TERF

10/100/1000

Ethernet

DSM

dag75g4pci_dsm.bit

(dag75g4pci_dsm...)

The software version strings are displayed in the

dagconfig

output and when using the

dagrom -x

command. They include a version number and creation date.
