tcl in system mem editor

[s002wjh]

is there a guide on how to use tcl to rd/wr to mem ?

i try something similar to this, but with my own device name under quartus Tcl console, but it output error "quartus_stp"     

so i guess whats the proper way to run in-systme memory editor via tcl console or command line?

begin_memory_edit -hardware_name "USB-Blaster \[USB-0\]" -device_name "@1: EP1S25/_HARDCOPY_FPGA_PROTOTYPE (0x020030DD)"

write_content_to_memory -instance_index 0 -start_address 575 -word_count 2 -content "0000001011011100" 

puts [read_content_from_memory -instance_index 0 -start_address 575 -word_count 2 ]

write_content_to_memory -instance_index 0 -start_address 575 -word_count 2 -content "E2F1" -content_in_hex

puts [read_content_from_memory -instance_index 0 -start_address 575 -word_count 2 -content_in_hex]

end_memory_edit

Look for these tcl commands in the attached image.

i try that didn't work.  actually the above code are example from altera, i just modify a bit for my dev board device.   does quartus tcl console accept command such as  begin_memory_edit ?  it always output quartus_stp error.

The error message indicate that you need to run the tcl script using the executable command: 

quartus_stp

Usage:

quartus_stp [-h | --help [=<option|topic>] |v ]
quartus_stp <project name> [<option>]
quartus_stp -t <script file> [<script args>]
quartus_stp -s
quartus_stp --tcl_eval <tcl command>

If you type help in the tcl console, it will displays a complete list of available Intel® Quartus® Prime Tcl packages available in tcl console. 

Unfortunately, you will found that the quartus_stp packages is not available in the tcl console so you can't use the insystem_memory_edit tcl script directly in tcl console. You may need to run it using command prompt.

Fyi, for best results, run shell commands and Intel® Quartus® Prime executables from a system command prompt outside of the Intel® Quartus® Prime software GUI.
