Hi
This is my first post, so I apologise if it's in the wrong place.
I have been developing on fpga's entirely in Altium Designer, however, it has come time to migrate the design off the prototype onto a production board, and a nightmare has unfolded. Where the Nanoboard3000 is able to accept instructions to program to the flash, any non-altium fpga board I connect does not have that option, and I can only program the actual fpga using the USB JTAG Adapter made by Altium.
So I have migrated across to Quartus and the forums and wiki have been very helpful and I have managed to create a .jic and .map file for programming the EPCS flash attached to a Cyclone II
But now I have discovered that I am unable to connect to the cyclone II over JTAG because Quartus does not recognise the Altium USB-JTAG device. I am using Quartus 9.1 (as this is the latest version that works alongside Altium). I try to program the device by clicking "tools -> programmer -> Hardware Setup -> Add Hardware" And after this I get stuck, because there is no Altium JTAG option in the drop down list, only the EthernetBlaster.
Has anyone had success using the USB JTAG Adapter by Altium in Quartus? or is there a way I can manually add a non-EthernetBlaster Jtag device?
Thanks in advance
Matt
