Honored ContributorQSYS info run tcl script
Hello,
I notice when I when I use QSYS and hit generate, during the build screen, there are lots of little notes along the lines of: info: Remember to run the IP_name.tcl script after synthesis and before pinnout The example labs I've followed so far have not mentioned these messages at all. When I'm building my own project, are these tcl scripts something I should be doing? Neal5 Replies
Altera_ForumYes, you do need to run these. So far I've only seen them associated with memory controllers and the HPS in an SoC. They set things like voltage levels, termination resistors and I/O standards for the pins.

I've posted examples before ... I think the zip files in these posts have the scripts ... http://www.alteraforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=45927 http://www.alteraforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=43992 Cheers, Dave

Hello,
To clarify now, I get this message during the Qsys generate: "Info: p0: Remember to run the first_OV5640_to_hdmi_mem_if_ddr3_emif_p0_pin_assignments.tcl Info: p0: script after running Synthesis and before Fitting." SO, as per the linked threads, I've run Anayisis and Synthesis. I then used the tcl console to cd to the directory with the scripts, and run source first_OV5640_to_hdmi_mem_if_ddr3_emif_p0_pin_assignments.tcl However, it spits out a bunch of errors for the script, see attached. Any advice what I'm doing wrong as I try to run this? Thank you. - Altera_Forum
You need to be in Quartus with your project open. In the Tools menu use the TCL scrips command to run the script. That way the needed definitions will be present.
