15 years agoThe only triple_speed_ethernet_design that works in this kit is from the Nios II software installation directory:-
C:\altera\91\nios2eds\examples\verilog\niosII_cycloneIII_3c120\triple_speed_ethernet_design Regarding the error "Error: Node instance "the_pll" instantiates undefined entity "altpllenet_pll” project". This is solved by reopening the SOPC Builder, and regenerating the SOPC system. After successful System generation, then recompile Quartus II project. The pll error will disappear. After that, to build and run SSS:- 1. Launch Nios II command shell. 2. Navigate to \triple_speed_ethernet_design\software_examples\app\simple_socket_server_tse_3c120_rgmiiand and run the script to compile the project by typing ./create-this-app as shown in create_this_app.jpg this creates the application but more importantly, patches the code to run on this devkit. i have tried just about every cut of code/hw/sw i found - this is the only way to get this baseline functional that i have found. 3. After successfully running the create-this-app script, you could import simple_socket_server_tse_3c120_rgmii and its corresponding bsp project (ucosii_net_tse_3c120_rgmii) to Nios II SBT for Eclipse to run the SSS. 4. To import, launch your Nios II SBT for Eclipse, from the "File" menu, choose "Import", under "Nios II Software Build Tools Project" >> choose "Import Nios II Software Build Tools Project" and click "Next". 5. Browse to the project path of where simple_socket_server_tse_3c120_rgmii locates and simply enter the desired project name. 6. Repeat the step (5) and (6) to import ucosii_net_tse_3c120_rgmii. 7. After importing both app and bsp projects to Nios II SBT for Eclipse, you are now ready to build and run the SSS project.
