Standard COM Port

Set Ethernet IP

Open Device manager and check for the COM ports. In this case, we have COM Port 8 (Enhanced) and COM Port 7 (Standard)

Things to Check On ADC12J4000 EVM, check if jumper KC705 JTAG is closed

Open both the COM ports using any Utility (like Hercules). For Standard COM Port(in this case COM port 7), make sure of the below settings while opening the port.

For Enhanced COM Port(in this case COM Port 8), make sure of the below settings while opening the port.

For Enhanced COM Port(in this case COM Port 161), make sure of the below settings while opening the port.

Set Baud rate to 115200

In the Tera Terminal window, select File then New connection to open a second terminal.

Click on Serial then select the standard port as shown below. In this example, the COM Port is 162.

Make sure the port settings are as shown below

Once open select Open Target then Open New Target from the drop down list

Click Next twice and you should se the following. Click Next again then Finish.

Now select Program Device and xku040_0 from the drop down list

Now select the Bit file and click Program

Enhanced COM Port Once firmware is downloaded, we need to set the FMC voltage to 1.8v in the enhanced port. To do that, in the Hercules where we have opened the Enhanced COM port, enter 0 to go the Main menu The main menu items will be displayed.
