Hello,Can I program this kit's FPGA using a .sof file or do I need to first generate a .flash file? Please include instructions if a .sof file is sufficient. Thanks.

All FPGAs can be programmed with a .sof file via the JTAG interface, either JTAG directly or usually using JTAG to USB conversion (USB Blaster). You just use the standalone Programmer or the Programmer included with a full installation of Quartus.

Thanks.I'm using the Arria 10 GX FPGA Development Kit (DK-DEV-10AX115S-A) and trying to configure its FPGA (10AX115S2F45I1SG) with a .sof file and a USB Blaster cable. I get this: Error (209015): Can't configure device. Expected JTAG ID code 0x02E660DD for device 1, but found JTAG ID code 0x020A30DD. Make sure the location of the target device on the circuit board matches the device's location in the device chain in the Chain Description File (.cdf).The FPGA listed on the device search of Quartus Prime Standard 23.1 gives the 10AX115S2F45I2SGES as being installed on the kit board:Which device part number should I be using, 10AX115S2F45I1SG or 10AX115S2F45I2SGES? What is the cause of the error? Thanks.

Did you auto select the device in the Programmer or manually select it? Try manually selecting the device.And show a screenshot of what the Programmer is showing you.

I've selected both devices (different compilations) and selected the devices manually in the Programmer. Programming fails with either compiled .sof file.Here's the programmer and error message with 10AX115S2F45I2SG selected:Error (209015): Can't configure device. Expected JTAG ID code 0x02E660DD for device 1, but found JTAG ID code 0x020A30DD. Make sure the location of the target device on the circuit board matches the device's location in the device chain in the Chain Description File (.cdf).Here's the programmer and error message with 10AX115S2F45I1SG selected:Error (209015): Can't configure device.

Hi,The part number should be 10AX115S2F45I1SG.https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/details/fpga/development-kits/arria/10-gx.htmlDo you used .sof file for 10AX115S2F45I1SG?When you click auto detect, what is showing? Kindly provide screenshot.Can you also try the JTAG chain debugger and provide screenshot here?Does this ever work before?Have you followed the userguide for the dev kit?Regards,Aiman

From my experience, you should auto detect, it should be able to detect both Max and Arria 10. This is some how necessary for the Programmer to know the chain of FPGAs. Then you should select the sof file for that particular FPGA and program it.
