change the slew rate to medium MAX V

Hello, I need to change the slew rate to medium in 5M570ZT100.
in assignment editor in Quartus doesn't propose SLEW_RATE.
When I tried to use explicitly "alt_outbuf" buffer which has SLEW_RATE parameter I get error
Error (12175): The parameter "slew_rate" on the I/O primitive type "alt_outbuf" is not supported for the "MAX V" device family.
tcl command modify_io_slew_rate is not supported for "MAX V"
in pin planner I don't have column for slew rate.
looks like Altera doesn't want users to have full control on slew rate for "MAX V".
but in max5_handbook I can see that it's possible

could anybody help me please
thank you
  • Hi,
    1. pin planner doesn't display all available pin option by default. Use "customize columns" in context menu to display "Slow Slew Rate" option.
    2. The tcl command is
    set_instance_assignment -name SLOW_SLEW_RATE ON to <pin name>

    There's no "medium" slew rate setting. You can set "slow slew rate" for individual pins, default setting is off. Review resource section, output pins in fitter report in case of doubt.
