Don't find the software for MAX V CPLD Development kit
- 4 years ago
Yes, that is what I would expect to see.
You should be able to assign the board test image POF file to the FPGA, and then click the VERIFY button to check if it is preprogrammed.
The image should verify 100% if the chip is preprogrammed.
Would also verify that your board is basically functional and can be used.
Quartus Prime Programmer shows as on the screenshot below.
So it seems to prove that the development kit is recognized ... isn't it ?
Curiously, Prime Programmer autodetects a 5M240Z ship but actually the board is equipped with a 5M570Z ...

Not uncommon, unfortunately. The two devices happen to have the exact same 32b JTAG ID code of 0x020A60DD
From the "Max V Device Handbook v1.1" table 6-3 32b IDCODE values for the Max V.
Turns out the 5M240Z in the T144 package has the same IDCODE value as the 5M570Z in any package.
Autodetect is ambiguous in this case, and it just chose a part.
When you assign a POF file to that device, you can chose the correct part number to assign as well (ie, a manual override).

Solved !
I have done a small test (led blinking) which works fine. The BTS don't wok but indeed, it not a real problem
Thank you so much for your help.
Now I have to master the different tools and deepen my knowledge in Verilog: it's another challenge
