Hi Jet,

Let's wait for Intel IT to fix the doc link so that we can checkout the user guide doc to find out is there any special guideline that we need to watch out in using this ref design.

The system console prompt timeout error which typically caused by either JTAG connection issue or Avalon MM bus stuck issue.

  • For the time being, you can also try to reduce JTAG frequency to 16MHz or even 6MHz to see if it helps.
  • Also pls ensure you are using the same Quartus version as the shown in ref design to avoid IP upgrade compatibility issue
  • Pls check to ensure your Ethernet design is not stuck in reset
  • Lastly, pls double check to ensure there is only one system console window open and you are not running other application like BTS or clock GUI or NIOS II terminal command sheel and etc to avoid JTAG congestion issue

Thanks
