6.2. Running the Board Test System

To run the Board Test System, make sure you have first installed the software. Follow the steps in Installing the Development Kit.

You can start the Board Test System with the following:

  • The BoardTestSystem.exe application that resides in <install dir>\kits\cycloneVGT_5cgtfd9ef35_fpga\examples\board_test_system directory.

Once the Board Test System application GUI appears, it displays the application tab that corresponds to the design running in the FPGA. The board’s flash memory ships preconfigured with the design that corresponds to the System Info, GPIO, Flash tabs.
