Hi

I would like to incorporate the IP (Eyescan_subsystem) reference design  provided by XAPP1198 and XAPP743 to plot the statistical Eye at the equalizer (ctle LPM) ouput on a GTX of the  Kintex7 FPGA on KC705

I was successful in ploting the eye when I run the normal data case using Frame Gen & Frame check.

In this case I got the correct dumpfile ( which has # errors for different DRP addresses)

My problem is with the prbs as follows:

1. I wanted to use internal prbs31 data generated by GTX instead of external normal data

2. I verified that the prbs eye was on the TX port of the GTX being tested

3. I run the eyescan script ( provided by XAPP1198) and got a wrong dumpfile ( which does not show any # of errors)

My questions are as follows:

1. Why Eyescan_subsystem (XAPP1198) does not work for internal prbs ?

2. Xilinx IBERT application does show that statistical Eye could be plot using internal prbs  ??

3. What signal I should use to reset the eye scan subsystem in case of prbs?

4. In case of normal data (with scrambler) I used track out data signal for reset and it works
