Can't program the S2GX device with sof file

After compile, if auto detect is clicked:

so I added the sof file to the S2GX device, I dont think i should add it to EPM570, right? only pof goes there, right?

https://www.alteraforum.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=6928

but when i try to program the device, the following msg shows:

https://www.alteraforum.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=6929

(It's trying to program the EPM570, but i explictly selected S2GX!!)

if I remove the EPM570 device, this is what i get:

    In the first image, the JTAG chain autodetects the MAX II then the SII.

    In the second image, you have somehow managed to accidentally change the order.

    Click auto-detect, add the file for the S II without changing the device order, and it should work fine.

    Cheers,
