New ContributorFPGA IP Evaluation Mode when using a remote JTAG server.
My design contains a SerialLite III IP, but I dont have the required license.
The FPGA image that is produced is a "time_limited" version.
I run my FPGA tools on a cloud based Linux machine.
The FPGA board is on a different machine located in the cloud.
My local FPGA tools access the FPGA board using a remote JTAG server that runs on the system that has the FPGA board installed.
According to AN 320: Using Intel® FPGA IP Evaluation Mode there is a Tethered and a Untethered mode.
When I use a remote JTAG server to load the FPGA board, is this the Tethered or Untethered mode?
If this is Untethered, can I move the .ocp file to the remote server to convert the situation into a Tethered mode? If soo, where should I move the file to.
Probes show that the link_up signals are not going active.
This behaviour matches what the user guide says would happen.
"The Intel Quartus Prime software uses Intel FPGA IP Evaluation Mode Files (.ocp) in your project directory to identify your use of the Intel FPGA IP Evaluation Mode evaluation program. After you activate the feature, do not delete these files.
When the evaluation time expires, the link_up signal goes low."
