Debugging DDR2 on Cyclon IV E

Hi, 

 

I Have a Problem with the Auto Calibration cyclus of may DDR2 Interface. 

On this reason I will debug a DDR-II RAM interface on may Cyclone IV E (EP4CE40F29C6) Chip over the JTAG Programming Device. 

My Design is made with a ALTMEMPHY Megafunction (I want use the UNIPHY Design but it seems that this PHY not work with Cyclon IV Devices ? ) 

I Used the Altera Quartus II Design software in Verasion 13.1 (web Edition) on Windows 7. 

The debugging Interface for External Memory in this software seems only for UNIPHAY devices, but i have found here a debugging Interface for ALTMEMPHY (ALTMEMPHY External Memory Interface Debug Toolkit). In the PDF that I have found is a download Link for the debugging software. 

 

But the problem is I Can start this Software ... the tool tells me that it not fined a valid Quartus II Software. 

 

Is here everyone that can me tell what is the problem ? 

 

* Need I a newer Tool ... and where I can download this ? 

* Need I the subscription Version of Quartus II Software for Debugging wit this Tool ? 

* Is there a Configuration Problem on my Quartus Installation ? 

* Can I use on Cyclon IV E Devices with a UNIPHY Design so I can Use the embedded Tool ?  

* Can I use the in the Quartis II embedded Memory Interface Tookit with a ALTMEMPHAY interface ? 

 

Thanks ...

I am having the same problem. Can anyone answer that? 

 

I can not find ALTMEMPHY external memory Debug tool 

 

Is there any checklist I can go through to see why Calibration is failing on Cyclone IV with DDR2
