Before programing with the .sof file, ensure that the connections and settings are correct.
Connections and Settings for HD/3G-SDI Single Rate and Triple Rate Designs
- For parallel loopback design, the on-board HD-BNC RX connector (J18) connects to an external video source and the on-board HD-BNC TX connector (J17) connects to a video analyzer.
- For serial loopback design, the on-board HD-BNC TX connector (J17) connects to an on-board HD-BNC RX connector (J18) or a video analyzer.
- Ensure all switches on the development board are in default position.
Note: Make sure to set both SW1.1 and SW1.2 to 1 to enable JTAG Only Mode.
- The SDI video analyzer displays the video generated from the source.
Note: For parallel loopback designs, you may need to switch the Si516_FS (SW4.2) at the back of the board if you are switching between fractional frame rate and integer frame rate video format.

Connections and Settings for Multi Rate Design
- A VIDIO™ FMC Development Module VIDIO-12G-A (Nextera 12G SDI FMC) daughter card or Terasic 12G-SDI FMC daughter card connects to the FMC Port A on the development board.
- For parallel loopback design, the BNC RX connector connects to an external video source and the TX connector connects to a video analyzer.
- For serial loopback design, the BNC TX connector connects to the BNC RX connector or a video analyzer.

Note: For Nextera 12G SDI FMC daughter card, change the jumper (J8) position before switching between fractional frame rate and integer frame rate video formats. Press the push button (PB0) to trigger a device (LMK03328) power cycling through the PDN pin every time you change the jumper (J8) position.
Figure 6. Jumper Settings on Nextera 12G-SDI FMC Daughter CardRefer to these settings to change the jumper (J8) position.
