Board Test System of Arria V GX is not pointing Quartus II software

Hi guys,

i have just started to learn about hardware. I am using arria V GX and trying to use its Board Test System (BTS),

but it always showing an error "could not find required quartus II version in the PC please install it or set ini file

to point ot the quartus II installed directory". I installed quartus II and also point to the root directory in the path

and still it is not working.

Thanks,

Zia

    Update your "QSYS_ROOTDIR" environment variable to point your Quatus installation path. The BTS is looking at that, not in your PATH, for the version of Quartus you have installed. The BTS executable will be looking for a minimum version of Quartus for it to work correctly. It should tell you which in the documentation.

    Cheers,

    Alex

    i have also set "QSYS_ROOTDIR" and it is showing exactly the same path of quartus II installation but it is still not working.
