Honored ContributorHi Dave,
Thanks for the reply. I did the same, I pulled the CNF_DONE high to break off from the loop. Is this the only way? Apart from setting the configuration from not running in a loop that is Auto-Restart Configuration on Frame Error option. On second examination, I found that there are two POF files in my directory which differ in size by a few bytes say file1.pof and file2.pof. Both files are loaded to EPC without any error message. One of the files configures everytime (the bigger size file1.pof). The other puts flex10K and EPC in the loop. Since there is no error on loading, can I safely assume that the file2.pof is complete in its frames? I think there should be a CRC check when the file is loaded and since the CRC is confirming, the file2.pof should be complete and yet may not be a proper bitstream. could this happen? Is there any way to check such errors? any way to rebuild the RTL from POF file?? The point is I will have to configure the EPC remotely in the future and my card will be completely enclosed and at that time I will not have a chance to pull the CNF_DONE pin. By the way I am using the Quartus 7.2 Thanks C Pemmaraju
