DK-NIOS-2S60N -- problem with direct JTAG configuration

Hello,

I have a dk-nios-2s60n board (http://www.altera.com/products/devkits/altera/kit-niosii-2s60.html). Board and Stratix ii works fine with factory config. When I try to configure Stratix ii with my own verilog configuration (QII 9.0) via USB-Blaster - then the problem arise:

During the configuration process the LED 4 (Error) is lighting up on the board. After configuration process nothing happens - all LED is dark (except LED 6 (Config_done) and LED 5 (Power)).

I try to load to fpga the following simple code:

--- Quote Start ---

module test(LED);

output LED;

assign LED=1;

endmodule

--- Quote End ---

In Assignments edition I write:

--- Quote Start ---

LED Location PIN_W15 Enabled

--- Quote End ---

All unused pins is configured as tri-stated inputs.

Could I load to fpga arbitrary verilog code ? Or DK-NIOS-2S60N is preconfigured to work only with NIOS II ?

Thank you

    My bad :)

    From DK-NIOS-2S60N reference manual:

    When a pin drives logic 0, the corresponding LED turns on.
