Installing Digilent Adept

OpenOCD does not use Digilent drivers to communicate with Digilent debug cables. It uses it's own implementation of FTDI MPSSE protocol, which is compatible with FTDI x232 cable. However, you might need to install Digilent Adept drivers and utilities to use some features of Digilent cables.

Download an appropriate version of runtime and utilities from Digilent Adept download page. There several options:

  • Adept for Windows System — utilities and runtime in a single installer for Windows.
  • Adept for Linux Runtime — runtime for Linux. rpm and dep packages are available, as well as a generic .tar.gz archive.
  • Adept Utilities — utilities for Linux. rpm and dep packages are available, as well as a generic .tar.gz archive.

You can check, that utilities and runtime are installed correctly using djtgcfg utility:
