You can now use the IP catalog compilation flow to create a complete design. When you double-click the System Generator token in IP catalog flow and click the Settings button, the Use Plug-in project directory must point to the Vivado® IP integrator project from which the design was imported (see below). When you click the Generate button, a new Vivado project based on the original Vivado platform framework/system plus the accelerator IP created in Model Composer, along with a software driver, will be created. This project will be located in an ip_catalog directory under the System Generator token's Target directory, and can also be placed into a common IP repository.
