14 years agoHi Dave,
Yep, I was thinking about using Signal Tap to confirm after programming, but my issue with wanting to store the design and load from power-up stems from having to work under XP with the Bemicro drivers and only having Vista/7 at work. I can dual boot my system at home and the older verison is XP, so have been doing a bunch of this at home in the evenings when I have time (been doing a lot of testing out in the field during regular hours). I did finally figure out how to reach the EPCS and store the design, but never found a single source of documentation from Altera describing all the necessary steps/widgets. Took way longer to figure out than it should have IMHO... (then again maybe I'm just being dense). When I have a chance again now, I'm going to go thru the SOPC/Nios lab for the bemicro to try to get up to speed on that stuff. I'm sure I'll have more questions then. Thanks for the reply! Cheers!
