Configuration parameters

These are the server, workspace and FPGA parameters needed for the Canvas Python GUI. In your future DSP designs (e.g. My first DSP design) you will have to provide them manually or by loading your default settings (optional, see below).

Parameter	Value
SERVER IP	82.223.15.170
SERVER PORT	5000
WORKSPACE ID	See Registration
WORKSPACE KEY	See Registration
FPGA IP	IP address of your Redpitaya
FPGA PORT	22 (default SSH port)
FPGA USER	root (default)
FPGA PWD	root (default)

Set default configuration parameters (optional)

The Python GUI allows to load default settings. This avoids remembering credentials and IP addresses for future DSP designs.

Follow the steps bellow to configure the default settings:

• Navigate from the downloaded Canvas master directory to Python_GUI/Resources/Settings and open defaultSettings.xml.
• Set the configuration parameters. The resulting XML file will look like:

• You are done! In My first DSP design you will learn how to load your default settings from within the Python GUI.

• Final remark. Note that the entries are saved as plain text and are not encrypted. While this is not a problem for most applications, feel free to leave empty specific configuration parameters of the defaultSettings.xml file.
