Board Test System Download Package – Stratix 10 TX Signal Integrity Development Kit
Hello,
I am currently working with the Stratix 10 TX Signal Integrity Development Kit on a Windows PC and would like to use the Board Test System (BTS) to verify the functionality of the board.
According to the Stratix 10 TX Transceiver Signal Integrity Development Kit User Guide, the BTS application should be included in the development kit package under:
<package_dir>\examples\board_test_system\BoardTestSystem.exe
However, I have not been able to locate the appropriate BTS package or download containing the BoardTestSystem.exe application.
Could someone from Altera please provide the current download link or the appropriate installer/ZIP package containing the BTS application and its associated test designs (.sof files)?
I would also appreciate confirmation of the recommended Quartus Prime version and any required dependencies for running the BTS on Windows.
Board: Stratix 10 TX Signal Integrity Development Kit
Development Kit: DKSI1STXEA
Host OS: Windows
Thank you for your assistance.

Sure, it is Quartus Prime Pro Edition 26.1.0.110 for Windows:

It could be an issue with the older BTS version. You may want to check this Knowledge Base article in below link:
I hope it helps you.

Please confirm if you found the BTS files in the installer package located in the website.

Thank you for your following up message. I've assigned this task to my post-Doc fellow Aftab Ahmad ([email protected]), and he submitted a more detailed query. However, he is still not able to identify the BTS, with a user-friendly GUI, as shown in the User Guide of this kit that I received when purchased in 2022.

Is the GUI of the Board Test System still available for the most updated Quartus Prime version that I'm currently using?

May I know which Quartus version you are using now? It should be no issue but let me check this first.
