Configure debug and run operation
Before you could run the "demo.elf" file on MicroBlaze you should configure the "stdio output".

| The Debug operation normaly share these settings, so you doesn't need to repeat this procedeure for debug operation but is better to check the settings (it is better to be on the safe side). |

Use the "demo" project with the XMD UART
| Tip |
|---|
| Demo program (running on MicroBlaze) will work even in case the UART port is left unconnected: it is not necessary to use a USB/Uart converter or Uart port on a PC, if you are using XMD UART HDL block. |
With this application, you can test the PC ↔ USB ↔ JTAG ↔ FPGA communication using a simulated UART (XMD_UART) on JTAG/USB connection.
GUI procedure
In this simple case you can simply click "Run" > "Run"
...
If you write the character "a" the RAM test should start.

Use the demo project without the XMD UART
To use the demo project without the XMD UART, you need to use "RS232" instead of "debug_module" as standard in/out port. Otherwise the application running on the Microblaze processor freezes if you disconnect the XMD. To accomplish that you need to set up the Microblaze "Software Platform Settings".
