# Simple-ZCU216-Example
# Clone the GIT repository
Install git large filesystems (git-lfs) in your .gitconfig (1-time step per unix environment)
```bash
$ git lfs install
```
Clone the git repo with git-lfs enabled
```bash
$ git clone --recursive https://github.com/slaclab/Simple-ZCU216-Example.git
```
Note: `recursive flag` used to initialize all submodules within the clone
# How to generate the RFSoC .BIT and .XSA files
1) Setup Xilinx PATH and licensing (if on SLAC AFS network) else requires Vivado install and licensing on your local machine
```bash
$ source Simple-ZCU216-Example/firmware/vivado_setup.sh
```
2) Go to the target directory and make the firmware:
```bash
$ cd Simple-ZCU216-Example/firmware/targets/SimpleZcu216Example/
$ make
```
3) Optional: Review the results in GUI mode
```bash
$ make gui
```
The .bit and .XSA files are dumped into the SimpleZcu216Example/image directory:
```bash
$ ls -lath SimpleZcu216Example/images/
total 47M
drwxr-xr-x 5 ruckman re 2.0K Feb 7 07:13 ..

# How to build Petalinux images
1) Generate the .bit and .xsa files (refer to `How to generate the RFSoC .BIT and .XSA files` instructions).
2) Setup Xilinx licensing and petalinux software (if on SLAC AFS network) else requires Xilinx & petalinux install on your local machine
```bash
$ source Simple-ZCU216-Example/firmware/vivado_setup.sh
$ source /path/to/petalinux/2024.2/settings.sh
```
3) Go to the target directory and run the `CreatePetalinuxProject.sh` script with arg pointing to path of .XSA file:
```bash
$ cd Simple-ZCU216-Example/firmware/targets/SimpleZcu216Example/
$ source CreatePetalinuxProject.sh images/SimpleZcu216Example-0x01000000-20220204204648-ruckman-90df89c.xsa
```
# How to make the SD memory card for the "first time"
1) Creating Two Partitions. Refer to URL below
https://xilinx-wiki.atlassian.net/wiki/x/EYMfAQ
2) Copy For the boot images, simply copy the files to the FAT partition.
This typically will include system.bit, BOOT.BIN, image.ub, and boot.scr. Here's an example:
Note: Assumes SD memory FAT32 is `/dev/sde1` in instructions below
```bash
sudo mkdir -p boot
sudo mount /dev/sde1 boot
sudo cp Simple-ZCU216-Example/firmware/build/petalinux/SimpleZcu216Example/images/linux/system.bit boot/.
sudo cp Simple-ZCU216-Example/firmware/build/petalinux/SimpleZcu216Example/images/linux/BOOT.BIN boot/.
sudo cp Simple-ZCU216-Example/firmware/build/petalinux/SimpleZcu216Example/images/linux/image.ub boot/.
sudo cp Simple-ZCU216-Example/firmware/build/petalinux/SimpleZcu216Example/images/linux/boot.scr boot/.
sudo sync boot/
sudo umount boot
```
3) Power down the RFSoC board
4) Confirm the Mode SW2 [4:1] = 1110 (Mode Pins [3:0]). Note: Switch OFF = 1 = High; ON = 0 = Low.
5) Power up the RFSoC board
6) Confirm that you can ping the boot after it boots up
# How to remote update the firmware bitstream
- Assumes the DHCP assigned IP address is 10.0.0.10
1) Using "scp" to copy your .bit file to the SD memory card on the RFSoC. Here's an example:
```bash
scp SimpleZcu216Example-0x01000000-20220204204648-ruckman-90df89c.bit root@10.0.0.10:/boot/system.bit
```
2) Send a "sync" and "reboot" command to the RFSoC to load new firmware: Here's an example:
```bash
ssh root@10.0.0.10 '/bin/sync; /sbin/reboot'
```
# How to install the Rogue With miniforge
> https://slaclab.github.io/rogue/installing/miniforge.html
# How to run the Rogue GUI
- Assumes the DHCP assigned IP address is 10.0.0.10
1) Setup the rogue environment (if on SLAC AFS network) else install rogue (recommend miniforge method) on your local machine
```bash
$ source Simple-ZCU216-Example/software/setup_env_slac.sh
```
2) Go to software directory and lauch the GUI:
```bash
$ cd Simple-ZCU216-Example/software
$ python scripts/devGui.py --ip 10.0.0.10
```
