2.3.1.1. Running VCS* MX Simulation in Interactive Mode

Note: If you already generated a simv executable in noninteractive mode, delete the simv file and simv.daidir directory.
  1. Open the vcsmx_setup.sh file and add a debug option to the VCS* command:
    vcs -debug_access+all
  2. Replace the command in the run_vcsmx.sh script with the following one before running it.
    sh vcsmx_setup.sh USER_DEFINED_COMPILE_OPTIONS="-sverilog\ +define
     
    +IP7521SERDES_UX_SIMSPEED+define+SM_PIPE_MODE \ "
    USER_DEFINED_ELAB_OPTIONS="" SKIP_SIM=1
  3. Start the simulation in interactive mode.
    simv -gui &
  4. Click start run simulation.
  5. A successful simulation ends with the following message in the simulation.log file that was generated.
    "Simulation stopped due to successful completion!"
