Hi


Please find my answers below:


1.What might be causing this issue?

This warning does not cause any functionality issue when debugging.

You may still continue to use it to debug.


2.How can I resolve it to ensure that the SoC EDS functions correctly?

Could you check if you are following the steps for SoC EDS according to the link below:

https://www.rocketboards.org/foswiki/Documentation/SoCEDS#Starting_Embedded_Command_Sh_AN1


3.Is there a specific DS-5 installation required for this version of the Intel FPGA Pro Edition?

Please note that the SoCED have been discontinued.

The DS-5 was last tested with using Intel FPGA Pro 20.1 and SoCED 20.1.


4.Are there any alternative solutions or workarounds if DS-5 is no longer supported or available?

Alternative for the DS-5 is the RiscFree IDE.

    Hi @JingyangTeh_Altera ,

    I have been following the quide for installing SoC EDS and Arm DS-5. But while executing the command embedded_command_shell.sh i'm getting the following error WARNING: DS-5 install not detected. SoC EDS may not function correctly without a DS-5 install.

    I am using Intel FPGA Pro 20.1 and SoCED 20.1.

    Can I use directly DS-5 without Intel SOCEDs? If yes what will be the advantages of using SOCEDs. Do I face any problem.

    Actually I want to use HPS to manage descriptors of MSGDMA IP so what I have to configure in HPS for this and do i need DS-5 and SOCEDs for this. Actually I am first time using HPS.
