If you're just using the Quartus Programmer (not doing design), any version of the software would work. You can even just download the Programmer standalone.

Hello,

Thank you very much for your helpful answer.

I have one more question.
We originally used .pof files to program the EPCS4SI8N.
What I would like to do now is use those same .pof files (originally generated for the EPCS4SI8N with Quartus 13.0) to directly program the EPCQ4ASI8N, without regenerating or converting them.

Would it be possible to use these existing .pof files with the Quartus Programmer Standalone to program the EPCQ4ASI8N?
