FS2 module

What do I need to do to use the free features of the OCI debug module with NiosII? 

 

I have the 1.01 version of the IDE, and I can get the FS2 console to come up when I start the IDE debugger. I want to use minimal resources and still have OCI. The e core does not seem to support OCI, so I have selected the s core/w 512 cache and level 2 debug. The generate and compile finishes normally (92% LEs in a C4).  

I create a hello world example for my new ptf, and the first time the FS2 console came up in debug as it is supposed to. I was able to set a hw breakpoint thru the FS2 console but not the menu (hw triggers dialog just says no OCI module). On subsequent tries, I could not run or debug the project. The debug pane is blank, and the run produces no output. I have tried rebuilding everything, rebooting, you name it.  

 

If I have the 1.01 version of the IDE, should I download the install from the FS2 site or is this just for ISA hw probe support? 

Does the download overwrite anything that was fixed by the 1.01 patch?

I see that the FS2 download is password protected so I guess that's not needed. 

Are there known issues with the OCI?
