Honored ContributorHello!
I have the similar task. Please advise how to replace the content of EPCS4 by means of NIOSII? The AS configuration schematic on a custom board is as follows: http://www.alteraforum.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=10117&stc=1 The original .jic file was programmed into EPCS4 in-factory via JTAG ( SFL ). To make in-field upgrade I plan to make NIOSII replace the original .jic file inside EPCS4 by a new one. After that replacement the next power-down/power-up cycle will load an upgraded version of .jic from EPCS4 into Cyclone IV. I know, that this approach has some drawbacks and risks, but I think it is the simplest to implement. Is there an Altera document, that describes how to make what I need? If not, then please advise how to make it.
