Hi,

The issue is that you are not updating the FPGA flash content. Please performed the step below.

  1. Connect USB-Blaster to the board.
  2. Run "jtagconfig" to ensure that your Intel FPGA Download Cable driver is ready to use:
  3. Go to "/opt/intel/openvino/bitstreams/a10_vision_design_sg1_bitstreams/BSP/a10_1150_sg1/bringup"
  4. Program the new sof file to the board: "quartus_pgm -c 1 -m JTAG -o "p;sg1_boardtest_2ddr_base.sof""
  5. Soft reboot:
  6. Source the environment variable script you made.
  7. source /home/<user>/init_openvino.sh
  8. Run "aocl diagnose"
  9. Go to "/opt/intel/openvino/bitstreams/a10_vision_design_sg1_bitstreams/BSP/a10_1150_sg1/bringup"
  10. Run "aocl flash acl0 sg1_boardtest_2ddr_top.aocx"
  11. Hard reboot the host system including powering off.

Hi

Thank you for the reply.

I had updated the FPGA flash content also before trying to program the bitstream. Still the problem persists.
