Hello horacioEsta,

>># ** Warning: (vsim-3473) Component instance "fifo1 : fifo512x32" is not bound.>>

This means that the FIFO instance from the Quartus library is not available for the simulation environment. Thats the reason why you see the signal are undefined. Please create a simulation library in Modelsim and copy the models from Quartus and the start the simulation. You will see the required signals at the output. To see how to make library please refer the Modelsim userguide, its pretty simple. All the best.
