How can I use the default application to program Agilex 7 Series I dev kit using Quartus pro softwar

[nashshah]

this is the dev kit configuration details.

<devkit><name>Agilex I-Series FPGA Development Kit</name><category>Development Kit</category><version>1.0</version><family>Agilex</family><device>AGI027RES</device><part>AGIB027R29A1E2VR0</part><vendor>Intel</vendor><description>The Intel® Agilex™ I-Series FPGA Development Kit delivers a complete prototyping and reference platform for designs needing PCI Express * (PCIe*) 5.0 (32 GT/s), Compute Express Link* (CXL) v1.1, or 400G Ethernet connectivity.</description><design>agilex_i_series_rdimm_ddr4</design></devkit>

What is the "default application"?  What are you trying to do?

You can install the full Quartus software or just the Programmer.

[nashshah]

get the dev kit running with hello world application and use the pof file for the board to initially program the board. 

[nashshah]

or I though I need a pof file first for the board or may be a bit file to generate a pof file however not sure which generic pof I need to program the board to start working with hello world application. 

[nashsha]

is there a sample sof or pof file available under Quartus dev kit examples directory?  

I have synthesize the goldon_top project 

however when I program the pof file generated form golden_top porject

using prime programmer pro edition and selecting the pof file by 

clicking on AGIB027R31B agilex 7 device and changing to pof file it

errors out and says 

Can not add flash memory programmer object file at top level'

I have a software background and it seems like I have to add more IP to top level 

code and regenerate mu pof file. However not sure on where to start debugging and which IP

to add to get to the point where I can run my hellow world application.

You need a .sof file, not a .pof, to directly program the device over JTAG.  You need to perform a full compilation of the Quartus project, not just synthesis, which generates the .sof.

Hello,

According to the previous comment from user 'sstrell'. The answer can be accepted, you will need a .sof file to directly program the device over JTAG. You need to perform a full compilation of the Quartus project, to generates the .sof file.

Hope that helps and do let me know if I can assist you further.

No it does not help what I am asking is very specific to development kit DKSIAGi027FC what I am asking for is the following.

1) is there ready to test sof for this dev kit

2) is there Nios V/g sample example for this dev kit

3) is there a recommended sample application for this dev kit

4) rocket board does not have any this for this dev kit

5) is there a process to get things compile synthesis for this dev kit. 

The generic answer does not help with trying to resolve issues with this dev kit. can you  get back to me with details pointers to documentation on how to get the dev kit running with

a sample golden image location of SOF

a sample NIOSV/g sample

Bare metal hello world application  

FreeRTOS hello world application.

Thanks
