Help -- Not able to view program Output on the SDK Console.

[venkat_vs2k2]

Hello, 

I am trying out EDK/SDK for the first time after checking some tutorials. I build a default microblaze project on ML605 using XPS/ SDK 13.3 

Then, export the bitsteram to SDK, and create a Helloworld C project and program the FPGA with download.bit created by the SDK ( I think now the bitstream has the required HW and SW part for running SW programs, according to the tutorial).  

But when i execute the project file on the HW, i do not see any output on the Console. Initially i used to get

Process STDIO not connected to console.If you'd like to see UART output in this console, please modify STDIO settings in the Run/Debug configuration.

Later I Rightclick current project --> properties -->  Run/Debug Settings and create a new property . Under STDIO Connections ---> Check STDIO to console and select correct baud rate and click OK

(However, the check box "connect process input & output to a terminal" on the main tab, remains greyed out) 

But still i dont see any output on the Console window on the SDK when i execute the program. Could someone tell me what am I missing here ?

Thank you,

Venkat.

Hi Annu_shah

This is an old post referring to an older version of SDK. Since you are using 2014.3, you have to set this option by referring to the following snapshot.

Hi all,

      I am trying to set up a Technical Refernce Design - Ethernet packet Redirection on a ZC702 board .

      I am using ISE 14.6 instead of 14.5 as suggested by the TRD set up instructions.

      I am getting one of the following errors:

Error 1

Process STDIO not connected to console.
If you'd like to see UART output in this console, please modify STDIO settings in the Run/Debug configuration.

Error 2

Blank on the console of SDK

Error 3

If I use JTAG UART

Error opening JTAG UART @ localhost:-1

I have read all the posts and tried everything I could . This is a refernce design and expected it to work.

Any pointers on what needs to be fixed ??

Thank you ,

hi,

can you use a hyperterminal from Windows/putty to direct the stdin/stdout?

Hi Mouna_zribi,

     I tried what htsvn suggested but didn't work for me . As stated in my post, i was working towards a Xilinx TRD work on my board. The ISE versions and the design files were not compatible.

    I finally got updated design files and moved to vivado flow and the design started working.

    Please analyze the root cause if what htsvn suggested doesn't work.

Thank you,
