signal tap invalid data received

Hello, 

I have an ALTERA USB Blaster, some year ago i used it with a Cyclone IV without any problem using Signal Tap .

Now i am trying to use the same ALTERA USB Blaster with  EP4CE10E22 , it works ok downloading the bitstream, but using Signal tap i got the next situation.

* it is a simple scheme , i use a button to turn  on a LED, when i read the state of the button , the state is always '1' , even when i press the button (state '0') the state doesn't change

*when i press Autorun analysis, it shows "invalid data received"

*if i set a falling edge trigger condition to the i_button, it shows "waiting for trigger" and after some seconds it shows "invalid data received"

 

This is the program 

module prueba(i_clk, i_button, o_led);
	input i_clk;
	input i_button;
	output reg o_led;
	
	always@(posedge i_clk) begin
		o_led <= i_button;
	end
endmodule

thanks in advance

CAUSE: You tried to run the Signal Tap Logic Analyzer, but the communications cable or circuit board is disconnected, or you made changes to the circuit board. As a result, the Signal Tap Logic Analyzer cannot acquire data.


ACTION: Make sure the communications cable and circuit board are connected to your system, and re-attempt to run the Signal Tap Logic Analyzer.

Most likely is connection issue or you might have made changes to the signal tap and need to recompile.

Hello, sorry for being late to answer.

I tested the USB blaster with another board and it works perfectly, so there is something wrong with my board.  It is strange because i don't have any problem to download the bitstream.
