Firmware update
If FPGA is not running compatible firmware srunner_cb will not work. To proceed, load the correct SOF file via JTAG (https://daq.triumf.ca/DaqWiki/index.php/DE10-Nano#JTAG_load_sof_file), then srunner_cb should work and will be able to load the jic or rpd file into the FPGA boot flash memory.
Different revisions of the DE10-Nano board have different FPGA boot flash chips, some have EPCQ128 (use the "-128" option), some have the EPCQ64 chip (use the "-64" option). Use "srunner_cb -id" per example below to identify which flash chip is present on each specific chronobox.
./srunner_cb.exe -id -64 /dev/null # identify EPCS64 flash ./srunner_cb.exe -id -128 /dev/null # identify EPCQ128 flash ./srunner_cb.exe -read -128 test.rpd # read flash contents into a file ./srunner_cb.exe -program -128 /home/olchansk/git/chronobox_firmware/output_files/DE10_NANO_SoC_GHRD_auto.rpd # write firmware rpd file into flash ./reboot_cb.exe # reboot the fpga into the new firmware

test_cb.exe
test_cb.exe is the general test program for the chronobox.
- test_cb.exe 0 # read chronobox register 0
- test_cb.exe 4 0x1234 # write to chronobox register 4
- test_cb.exe reboot # reboot the FPGA (the ARM CPU keeps running)
- test_cb.exe scalers # read all scalers in a loop
