ARM DS Unable to connect to agilex SoC HPS

Hi,

I am trying to use ARM Development Studio 2022.0 to develop ARM Bare Metal FW in my Intel® Agilex™ F-Series FPGA Development Board (FPGA Device AGFB014R24A2E3VR0), but i am unable to access HPS using the Intel FPGA Download Cable, i get the following message when trying to debug:

"Unable to connect to agilex_test

Reason:

The target hardware identity could not be verified. Please check that the target being connected to is of type Agilex SoC"

The Agilex FPGA is configured with a very basic design which includes HPS, EMIF and one OnChip Memory, the bitstream was generated using Quartus Prime Pro 22.3 and the u-boot-spl-dtb.hex from RocketBoards.org reference designs.

By the way, i cannot see the Agilex HPS device in JTAG chain using the Quartus Programmer Tool.

Any help is very welcome.

Thanks

    Hi all,

    I am currently facing the same problem. Have you found any solution about it? If you found a solution to it, I'd be glad to hear it. The Arm DS gives me the error as "The target hardware identity couldn't be verified. Please check that the target being connected to is of type Agilex-7 SoC" I also couldn't see the hps in jtag chain. My switches are at its default position, and I am working on Agilex-7 Dev Kit. Could you please help about that?

    Best Regards,

    Balerion
