ModelSim

Windows

View-pim-tasks.png

Get the installer from R:\SYND\Ele_2131\ELN\Software\VHDL\ModelSim\modelsim-win32-10.7c-se.exe.


View-pim-tasks.png

Set following options during the installation process:

  • Target location: C:\eda\MentorGraphics\ModelSim

Linux

Download Modelsim

In order to install Modelsim and/or Questa the following files need to be downloaded from R:\SYND\Ele_2131\ELN\Software\VHDL\ModelSim\.

  • install.linux
  • modelsim-base.mis | questasim-base.mis
  • modelsim-docs.mis | questasim-docs.mis
  • modelsim-linux_<version>.mis | questasim-linux_<version>.mis

Set executable rights

chmod +x install.linux

Execute installer

sudo ./install.linux

Follow Instructions

If possible install at location /opt/modelsim_<version> | /opt/questasim_<version>

HDL-Designer

HDL-Designer is used to design digital circuits.

Windows

View-pim-tasks.png

Get the installer from R:\SYND\Ele_2131\ELN\Software\VHDL\HDL-Designer\HDS_2019.2_win.exe. and launch it.


View-pim-tasks.png

Set following options during the installation process:

  • Target location: C:\eda\MentorGraphics\HDS\
  • Product selection: HDL Designer

Linux

Ask Francois Corthay for help.

This setup is done for (K)Ubuntu


View-pim-tasks.png

For x86-64 systems, install 32 bit libraries:

sudo apt-get install ia32-libs

For mulitarch systems (typically Ubuntu 12.04 or newer), install

sudo apt-get install libxi6:i386 libXp6:i386 libXmu6:i386


View-pim-tasks.png

Copy the installer from R:\SYND\Ele_2131\ELN\Software\VHDL\HDL-Designer\HDS_2015.2_ixl.exe to /home/user/Downloads/EDA


View-pim-tasks.png

Install it:

cd /home/<i>user</i>/Downloads/EDA/
chmod +x HDS_*.exe
sudo ./HDS_*.exe

Options:

  • Target location: /usr/opt/HDS
  • Product selection: HDL Designer


View-pim-tasks.png

Add path and license server info:

export PATH=$PATH:/usr/opt/HDS/bin
export LM_LICENSE_FILE=$LM_LICENSE_FILE:<portNumber>@mentorlm.hevs.ch


View-pim-tasks.png

Test the application:

hdl_designer &


View-pim-tasks.png

Update the settings:

sudo nano -w /etc/profile

Add the lines:

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 
# EDA tools
#
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/opt/HDS/bin
export LM_LICENSE_FILE=$LM_LICENSE_FILE:<portNumber>@mentorlm.hevs.ch


View-pim-tasks.png

Add a toolbar menu:

  • right-click on Applications and choose Edit Menus
  • click on New Menu and name it EDA
  • click on EDA and then New Item:
    • Name: HDL Designer
    • Command: /usr/opt/HDS/bin/hdl_designer
    • Icon: /usr/opt/HDS/resources/bitmaps/hdldesigner.bmp

Start the application from the Toolbar menu.

License
