Cyclone V won't configure via active serial

I have (hopefully) attached a screen shot of the Convert Programming File setup that I used. I am not seeing the attachment in the "preview" but it says it is attached so maybe it will appear.

Try with below options

Tick memory file check box while generating .jic file.(To generate output_file.map)

Okay, this is what the map file says:

BLOCK START ADDRESS END ADDRESS

Page_0 0x00000000 0x006AEBCF

Configuration device: 5CSEBA5

Configuration mode: Active Serial x4

Quad-Serial configuration device dummy clock cycle: 12

Notes:

- Data checksum for this conversion is 0x99FF6008

- All the addresses in this file are byte addresses

1.Check the pin nConfig and nStatus in reset state it should be high state.

2.Is it development board/custom board?

• If it is custom board: Do you have any hardware/IC in path on nSTATUS and CONF_DONE (like line driver / TRX).

3.Is there any configuration in board available to select the different sectors of the flash to load different program?

nConfig is pulled high via a 10K resistor. I tried configuring the FPGA directly from JTAG, started with my LED blinking (indicating that the FPGA is configured and working), the CONFIG_DONE output asserted (I have this connected to a LED so I can monitor it easily). Then I momentarily grounded the nConfig signal. The CONFIG_DONE signal was negated and my LED stopped blinking. It did NOT reconfigure from the serial FLASH as I expected.

The nStatus signal is mostly High, but it does get asserted briefly every 175 ms, which I believe is when the FPGA starts over on the configuration process.

This in a custom board, not a development board.

I have tried this on two different boards, the result is the same.

4.Try to load .jic or .pof using flash loader.

5.Erase EEPROM and try to program.

--- Quote End ---

I am not sure what you mean by loading the .pof

Is there some other means of loading the serial flash?

I have tried erasing the FLASH and trying over many times. I can program, erase and verify the flash using the USB Blaster, that all appears to work fine.

I am also attaching the screen shot from the stand alone programmer. I made sure to note that the checksum reported by the programmer matches the checksum reported in the map file.
