Help needed to start PAM4 loopback test on Stratix 10TX-SI Kit

Hi everyone,

I am working with the Stratix 10 TX Transceiver Signal Integrity Development Kit and I am trying to run the PAM4 loopback test.

I have followed the documentation and found both qts_pam4_com and bts_pam4.sof. I’m currently in Quartus with the bts_config project open, but I’m stuck on how to proceed to the BTS main page → PAM4 tab.

Could someone please clarify the correct sequence for:

bts_pam4.sof → FPGA configuration → launch qts_pam4_com/BTS → PAM4 tab → start QSFP-DD/2.4-mm loopback test?

Do I need to compile bts_config, or can I directly use bts_pam4.sof?

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Kind,
