Connect input power cable to a power supply that meets input power
specifications defined in Table 1-1. The red wire is the V+ terminal and black wire is the V– terminal.
Turn on the supply power. Once powered up, controller PCB LED
indicators (D5) illuminates green to indicate the board is provided VIN_MAIN power, such
as 12V.
If the external SPI flash card for the
FPGA was installed along with the jumper to configure from that flash, then the FPGA
status LEDs (D6 and D8) should come on for a brief amount of time while the FPGA
configures. When configuration is completed, INTB (D4) and FPGA_DONE (D2) LEDs should come
up as green.
Turn the PROJ_ON switch (SW6) ON. The ON position is toward the edge of
the board, as indicated by the board silkscreen. The controller board's PROJ_ON LED (D3)
should illuminate green.
If the FPGA is being used with external
SPI flash card, then the PROJ_ON switch also triggers the FPGA to begin emitting its
"heartbeat." The status LEDs on LEDs D6 and D8 will begin to blink, or provide a
heartbeat.
