Absolute beginer (about ~10 hours in) trying to instantiate an external VHDL IP on a FPGA target. I followed this technical note up to the point where I tried to connect an output port of the IP to a led. Connecting both always trigger the same error: The type of the source is void. I believe that the port is defined properly in the CLIP:
<Signal Name="outLed">
<HDLName>outLed</HDLName>
<Datatype>
<Boolean/>
</Datatype>
<Direction>FromCLIP</Direction>
<SignalType>data</SignalType>
</Signal>
Which I believe matches the VHDL entity:
entity IPNode is
port(
ap_clk :INSTD_LOGIC;
ap_rst :INSTD_LOGIC;
ap_start :INSTD_LOGIC;
ap_done :OUTSTD_LOGIC;
ap_idle :OUTSTD_LOGIC;
ap_ready :OUTSTD_LOGIC;
outLed :OUTSTD_LOGIC);
end;
For the record I use Labview 2013 and I'm targeting the Zynq Z010 on a MyRIO.
