I am trying to flash my pcie385n_a7 using "aocl flash hello_world_131_pcie385n_a7.aocx" The command never completes because of the following error(s):

Running "quartus_pgm -c USB-Blaster -a" gives this output: 

 

Info: Command: quartus_pgm -c USB-Blaster -a 

Info (213045): Using programming cable "USB-Blaster [2-1.5]" 

1) USB-Blaster [2-1.5] 

Unable to read device chain (JTAG chain broken) 

 

 

I have checked over the usb blaster connections and they seem to correctly connected.  

 

Am I missing something or is JTAG chain actually broken?

I bungled connecting the break-out board to the FPGA. I have now done it properly and aocl flash works like a chram.

Hey what do you mean by break-out board? 

Did you really have to setup the hardware again and stuff like that?

Hi Kevinkit, 

 

Have a look at the PDF attached to this thread http://www.alteraforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=41749 That should help you identify the breakout board for the PCIe-385N. 

 

Thanks, 

G

Hi thank you for the information, 

 

This may not be the problem because from another PC it works fine. I am intern at a resarch center where some other student works also on the FPGA , he has no problems - but I have.  

So, any other ideas? 

 

Or could it still be the break-out board but somehow this error only occurs me?
