Hi,

with the MAX 10, I've created before and example of parallel flash loader to program the flash, but in your case you are using the EPCQA device which is a serial active and isn't compatible with the parallel flash loader. You have to use the serial flash loader to make the FPGA as a bridge between the JTAG and the flash.

Please let me know if I got your point. If not please provide more info about the issue.

Regards,
