Honored ContributorQuartus time-limited to normal evaluation licence
hi
I'm a vhdl developer and use frequently the quartus compile. This weekend is expired the evaluation licence for the Quartus II (my version is 15.0) and I've supplied the time-limited licence downloaded at the Altera licence page since I've an evaluation board for a Stratix 5. After the first compilation I've noticed that the result is quite different from the evaluation full licence that the altera FAE has supplied me. So I've request a new evaluation full licence meanwhile the full licence will be provided by the supplier. The problem is that despite I'm pointing the evaluation licence the quartus is still running as Time-limited. Where is placed the setup to get back again the full Qurtus performance? It seems is still running as Tiime-limited since the .sof file is named as xxxtime-limited.sof. Thanks in advance to anybody will solve this issue.5 Replies

You can check the IP cores Summary to find out exactly which core in your design requires a license. Then you can check in the License Setup window if the license is properly installed.
In Quartus 11.1 (and most probably in most recent versions of Quartus), the IP Cores Summary can be found in the Compilation Report > Analysis & Synthesis > IP Cores Summary. The License Setup window can be called from the Tools menu. - Altera_Forum--- Quote Start --- You can check the IP cores Summary to find out exactly which core in your design requires a license.
