Dear Casperites,
I'm facing the same error that Shanquan was facing when following the
"Introduction
to Simulink
<https://casper.berkeley.edu/wiki/Introduction_to_Simulink_ROACH2#Connecting_to_the_board>"
(first tutorial) for the Roach2. Please see below:
RuntimeError Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-4-51f328acfe29> in <module>()
----> 1
fpga.upload_to_ram_and_program('/u/home/josaitis/mlib_devel/fpg_files_casper_tutorial/atj_t1_2016_Jul_20_1519.fpg')
/usr/local/anaconda/lib/python2.7/site-packages/casperfpga/katcp_fpga.pyc
in upload_to_ram_and_program(self, filename, port, timeout, wait_complete)
442 if request_result != '':
443 raise RuntimeError('progremote request(%s) on host %s
failed' %
--> 444 (request_result, self.host))
445
446 # start the upload thread and join
RuntimeError: progremote request(Request to client roach020D19 failed.) on
host roach020D19 failed
Something to also note, when this error occurs in iPython (as instructed to
use in the tutorial), the following printout statement occurs in my minicom
connection to the Roach2 board:
call: no dispatch function for ?progremote
Does anybody have recommendation on how to help Shanquan and my issue?
Best,
Alec
