Cyclone III FPGA Starter board + HSMC example

Can anyone help me to implement a simple NCO in a cyclone III FPGA Starter board but interfacing with The Data Conversion HSMC (High Speed Mezzanine Card for the conversion D/A, ADC) used for developing DSP applications.

I need an easy step by step tutorial because I’m a beginner.

Thanks

    This isn't exactly what you're looking for but I have an example design which drives an ADC and DAC on an HSMC connected IO board here..

    This will let you see how everything is driven. Constraints are for the classic timing analyser, this is a few years old.

    There's also an example of how the serial port can be driven from Excel (to drive this example design) which might be of general interest.
