First.v P&R error with 3010:ERROR:NgdBuild:604

randyg · June 7, 2006, 9:15pm

I have a 3010 board with a 1500 on it.

I have been successfully able to take the first.ise project, move it to another directory, rename it, make a change to the verilog source code to bring the clock out on a pin, change the UCF file to bring the clock to a known pin, create a bit file, load it with front panel, and see that the clock does come out on the pin I specified.

However, the above solution is klunky for me and only seems to work when I make the new directory in a sub directory of “first”.

I tried simply to create a new project from scratch and I end up with errors during place and route. Does any have any ideas from the below place and route report ?

I must not be linking in all the files or not setting an appropritte project option.

To create the project, I put the UCF, and v file in a new directory, rename them, open project navigator 7.1, and create a project including first.v, the UCF file, and the okLibrary.v file in the C:\Program Files\Opal Kelly\FrontPanel\FrontPanelHDL\XilinxISE71_v2 directory.

Any help would be appreciatted.

Thanks,

Randy

Hello-

You’re almost there. The only thing you need to take care of is the NGC files for the HDL modules we provide. There are two solutions to this:

Copy the *.ngc files to your project directory.
Under the “Implementation Properties”, you can set an alternate path for MAP to find these files.

Including the step where you include our okLibrary.v file in your project, these are the only steps required to setup a project with FrontPanel. (oh, and making sure you have pin mappings set properly, but you have to do this anyway)

Thanks you, including the NCG files in the project directory worked fine.
