Hi,

If that is the case, you do not need to manually assign the pins: just leave unchecked the parameters about the ASMI interface and QSPI pins (I don't remember how they are exactly called). Quartus is going to automatically connect the IP to the Active Serial Configuration pins (check the compilation report to be sure).

    How can I use those Altera's reserved pins after the configuration process(in User mode) ?
