Hi AHano,

Apologize for the delay in response. I have watched the shared video shows the Arra10 dev kit was plug into the PCIe slot. Both the shared links showed the same video. I saw the jtagconfig test detected MAX V device. The jtagconfig --debug result does not show any error. It was able to detect as single device (in this case MAX V) in the JTAG chain. If the Arria 10 is not enable in the JTAG chain, the Quartus programmer (jtagconfig) can only detect MAX V device. If both the Arria 10 and MAX V are enable in the JTAG chain but somehow if the Arria 10 device failed to power up, the Quartus programmer should detect some kind of error in the JTAG chain as incomplete.

Did you check SW4.1 is set to OFF (to enable the Arria 10 to the JTAG chain) before powering up the Arria 10 dev kit? Can you provide me a video showing the dip switch settings (SW4) before powering up the Arria 10 dev kit stand alone? Then launch Quartus programmer to perform auto detect.

You can refer to the Arria 10 dev kit user guide for the default factory settings under chapter "Default Switch and Jumper Settings":

Also I have attached a screen shot on the SW4 setting. Thus please check the SW4 setting orientation.
