Intel SFL IP Core in top-level module used to configure serial configuration device causing ID error

Hi,

I am having difficulty using the instantiated Intel FPGA Serial Flash Loader IP Core in my top level design to load newer firmware versions for the FPGA into a serial configuration device.

I have created an instance of the SFL IP core without the "Share ASMI interface in your design" option selected and am feeding a low signal into the noe_in input in my top-level design. I use the Quartus programmer to load the generated .sof file onto the FPGA. When I go to load the same configuration data in .jic format, I get the error:

When programming, only the .jic file is selected to be programmed - not the Factory Default enhanced SFL image as well. I am programming via JTAG interface using EthernetBlaster. Programming the serial configuration device with the .jic using the Factory Default enhanced SFL image works successfully.

Edit: issue resolved.
