FPGASpikeGen Virtual Source Core ID

[Andrew Hansen]

If I want to send bitstrings in to program events via caerDeviceConfigSet, how would I set build the connections to listen to the FPGASpikeGen? Would I change the (program SRAM) virtual Core ID to some specific value as shown in the diagram?

All the best,

Andrew

Hi Andrew,

You can use the convenience function caerDynapseWriteCam to set the cam of a target neuron to listen to the source ID which you programmed the FPGASpikeGen to emit. If you programmed the fpgaspikegen to emit an event with address y and a virtual core ID of x you would call
 
caerDynapseWriteCam(yourDynapseHandle, (x << 8) + y, targetNeuronAddr, camID, synapseType);

I see. Thank you for the response.
