StefKay Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 Hi, I see, that Waveforms Software seems to support Dual device mode for EclypseZ7 boards. But I can't find, which pins are used for the T1 & T2 signals, which are needed for the sync. Any hint, where I can find that info? best regards Stef Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 attila Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 Hi @StefKay T1 = DIO14 = B6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 attila Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 Hi @StefKay It looks like dual mode with reference clock is not supported with EclypseZ7. I will try to add support for this next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 StefKay Posted April 4 Author Share Posted April 4 Tanks for the info. What's the disadvantage, when only connecting T2, instead of T1+T2, as per attached dialog? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T1 & T2 is for both. plz correct me, If I got that wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 attila Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 Hi @StefKay Looking at the project, unfortunately there are no clock capable DIOs, so reference clock for device synchronization is not really possible with EclypseZ7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 StefKay Posted April 20 Author Share Posted April 20 ok, would have been a useful feature. another question: is there a way, to set another SN on the Eclypse SD-Card containing the Waveforms bin? not only 00000000? could be handy to distinguish two connected boards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This makes it a bit difficult, to distuingish two such devices from the sdk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 attila Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Hi @StefKay The FDwfEnumUserName returns the editable name or use FDwfDeviceOpenEx("name:mydevicename\0", &hdwf) The ElypseZ7 is a development board. The WaveForms support for it originally was only used for internal Zmod development, validation, testing and calibration. The board's SN and device name are stored in the other USB controller's EEPROM and the reserved fields for these in the QSPI are empty. To change these, in WaveForms hold down the Ctrl key while opening Settings/'Device Manager'. Now under More dropdown a 'Device IDs' option will show up where you can change the names and SN by entering new value, and press the Set button after the field, but don't change the Prod|Rev|FW.
