Hi,
Can you share more information on Development kit and tool version & edition used?
- After analysis and synthesis , have you done with pin assignments ?
- After pin assignment run full compilation. which will generate .sof file under project directory or output_files under project directory.
- Now need to do the hardware setup, Check MSEL jumpers (JTAG-based configuration takes precedence), Connect the USB BLASTER to on board JTAG header or on-board usn-blaster USB.and power up the board
- From Quartus go to tools->programmer->hardware setup->Select USB blaster.Click mode->JTAG, Click on Auto detect see if you can see the fpga device.
- Now you can add the .sof file and program by clicking on start.

Dear Anand,
Thank you for giving me answer.
1.It already pin assigned and it has created .sof file which i will add during JTAG.Please see the attachment.

2.USB Blaster I already ordered.It is on the way.Hopefully,It will work.
3.Basically,I want to run the exiting code with CAN and see the result.Then i should replaced by CAN FD in CAN.I have more work with VHDL Code.I need to make them fit (IFI CAN FD) with existing implementation.
4.Can you tell me what is QSYS tool ? I have seen few tutorial.Some design starts with QSYS and some other is normal way(write code,compile,JTAG). can you tell me the difference ?
Thank You.
