using control panel 2.0.1, I get the following message:

2. The FPGA Board is power on.

I checked that the FPGA is connected to the computer and that it is on.

Hi Andy,

Could you please provide the error message when the control panel (version 2.1 or 2.0.1 ?) is trying to establish connection to your DE1 board ?

The VGA output displays the blended color bars image could be the result of

1. the control panel is not connected or

2. re-compilation under a different version of Quartus II without additional setting in .sdc file.
