Description

This example demonstrates how to perform an eye scan to aid in debugging issues with the high-speed serial channels on the PXIe-6593 Xilinx GTH transceivers and the PXIe-6594 Xilinx GTY transceivers.

 

Access the original versions of the Aurora Streaming examples through the FlexRIO Integrated IO Project Creator located at LabVIEW»Help»Find Examples»Hardware Input and Output»FlexRIO»Integrated IO»Getting Started.

 

Hardware and Software Requirements

  • LabVIEW 2020 or newer
  • LabVIEW FPGA 2020 or newer
  • FlexRIO 20.1 or newer
  • PXIe-6593 or PXIe-6594

 

 

How to Use

  1. Open the Host folder, then Open the Acquire Eye Scan (Host).vi.
  2. Under FPGA Resource, select your device.
  3. Select the path to the bitfile you want to use.
    • A precompiled version of the FPGA VI is included in the downloaded example.
  4. Select the QSFP port and lane that you want to perform an eye scan on.
  5. Adjust the Bit Error Ratio Floor and Step Size as desired.
  6. Run the VI.

 

 

Additional Information

For more information about the PXIe-6593, PXIe-6594, and the Eye Scan Instrument Design Library, refer to the FlexRIO Help installed with the FlexRIO driver.
