Hi,

Can someone please help me in defining constants to modify using In-System Memory Content editor?

I am using Quartus Prime Pro 19.2 version.

    Hi,

    I need to define a constant. Based on a particular value of the constant, I want to perform a specific task.

    After the task is performed, I want to change the value of the constant using ISMCE.

    Can someone please help me with this?

    Regards,

    Pavan

      Hi @Ppavan

      Are you asking on how to edit the Memory Contents in the ISMCE?

      You can edit the contents of instances by typing over the existing values directly into the Hex Editor pane.

      You may checkout the User Guide below Section 5. In-System Modification of Memory and Constants:

      YouTube video on how to use In System Memory Content Editor:

      p/s: If any answer from the community or Intel support are helpful, please feel free to give Kudos.

        Hi Richard,

        Thank you for the reply.

        I want to modify a constant (if that is possible) through ISMCE.

        I am currently using tcl scripts, not GUI. I have working scripts to read and write data to memory using ISMCE.

        I want to do the same to read and modify a constant through ISMCE.

        Regards,

        Pavan
