There is a Tcl script it does all the compilation and PAR stuff. It runs quartus_sh. I have just placed the above lines (ENABLE_SIGNALTAP_ON) into the file.

Both the windows dont have any activity.

I get the "instance not found" ,"JTAG communication error" and "Download the correct SRAM Object File". I can see the signaltap signal in the synthesis log.

Hi,

only to check whether signaltap is include correctly:

Start Quartus directly and open and open the project.

Look under : Assignments -> Settings -> Signaltap II Logic Analyzer:

Is it enabled and the right signaltap file selected ?

If not, select signaltap and the file and re-run Quartus.

Kind regards
