Getting Started With Stratix V DE5 5SGXEA7N2F45C2 FGPA

Hello,

I'm a university student and my research lab was donated a DE5 Stratix V FGPA (5SGXEA7N2F45C2). However, it came with no data sheets, manuals, startup guides, etc (I had to guess what board we have based on its picture). I was wondering if anyone could help getting started. I have tried the simple led counter, but it is difficult to compile and run because I don't know what the right pin assignments are for clock, led's, etc. I haven't been able to find any documentation on FPGA pin layouts, either. If you could provide this info and a brief guide on how to design programs using Quartus 2, I would highly appreciate it!
