Please note that there is an SD Card slot on the VEK280 board. The SD card is for storing the boot images for the Versal Device itself.

Versal System Controller
The Board evaluation and management (BEAM) tool is the main menu of the System Controller. It primarily serves as a launcher for running the board interface test (BIT) and to set/change/read board parameters such as clocks, FMC, voltages, etc. for running Targeted Reference Designs (TRDs) or developing custom applications. The BEAM tool aims to enhance the out-of-the-box experience for Versal evaluation board users through an easy-to-use web-based UI.
The BEAM tool is currently in OPEN BETA, please follow the instructions provided in the link below to proceed with the tool.
