This section describes various issues that you may encounter when you are using HIL
designs.
If the top-level of your design changes, compile and reload the Quartus II project into
HIL to ensure that all information is up-to-date.
HIL reads design information, such as clock, reset, and input and output ports, from
the specified Quartus II project. However, it can fail to load your project if the project
is not compiled with the Quartus II Fitter, there is a Quartus II version mismatch, or
the Quartus II project file is not up-to-date.
This issue occurs if the DSP Builder model file contains only the internally induced
signals, such as from a counter, and also does not produce any outputs. However, HIL
simulation works correctly.
This issue occurs if your design does not have any outputs and makes the HIL
simulation meaningless.
An asynchronous reset is permanently asserted for a HIL design.
Action:
Check that the reset active level matches the setting in the original design. Recompile
the HIL design after you have changed the reset level.
After clicking Compile with Quartus II in the HIL Block Parameters dialog box, no
output writes to the MATLAB command window. This issue occurs if the original
Quartus II project is out-of-date or compiled by a different version of the Quartus II
software.
This issue occurs if you connect the target DSP development board switch it on after
you open the HIL dialog box.
