Getting Started

Set Up the VCU1525 Accelerator Card

2018.3

Download the Xilinx Runtime and Deployment Shell.

1.

Download the Xilinx Runtime

The Xilinx runtime (XRT) is a low level communication layer (APIs and drivers) between the host and the card.

IMPORTANT: Please enter the following command before installing the XRT: 

RedHat:

sudo yum-config-manager --enable rhel-7-server-optional-rpms

sudo yum install -y https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm

CentOS:

sudo yum install epel-release

2.

Download the Deployment Shell

The deployment shell is the communication layer physically implemented and flashed into the card.

Note:

The VCU1525 will leverage this shell for application development, though the card itself is for development only and was not qualified for volume deployment as part of an end system.
