1.4.2.1. Changing the Target Board for a Platform Designer System

After creating or opening a system, you can use any of the following methods to change the target board for your system:

Figure 8. Change the Target Board in Platform Designer System Settings


Click System > System Settings in Platform Designer to change the target board at any time.

Or

In Platform Designer's IP Catalog, click the Board tab, then select the target board in the list and click Set. The board name appears in bold when set as the target board.

Alternatively, you can specify the target board by adding board arguments to qsys-edit and qsys-generate at the command line. The board argument is optional:

$qsys-edit --board=[board name]
$qsys-edit --board=[board name] -family=[device family] --part=[device part]

qsys-edit opens the Open System dialog box and automatically sets the board that the argument specifies.

Note: The --board option takes precedence over the device family and device part options. If you specify a board, the device family and device part associated with board automatically update to the board's default device family and part. If you specify the board, device family, and device part , the board option with mapped device family and part is selected.
