Hi,

What do you mean by "hecking the sof file resulting in not working"

Attach some image of result also Share information on reference designs and development kit used.

  1. Is your reference project sof file working fine ?
  2. Check pin assignments.
  3. Check clock signal.
  4. Reset pin state on board.

Regards

Anand

    I mean that after doing the update of symbol, checking the generated sof file not working where as before for the same logic it is working.

    Attach some image of result also Share information on reference designs and development kit used.

    Ans: Actually, this is our custom project on custom board, where as in this project if the library path not added then things are working fine. But for the same logic library path added means not working.

    1. Is your reference project sof file working fine ? Ans: Yes, without any change and with some change in it also working but without updating the schematic symbol.
    2. Check pin assignments. Ans: No difference observed.
    3. Check clock signal. Ans: In both places, it is fine because able to blink led in both cases but logic related to library path added one not working, but without library path adding not able to update symbol peripheral in schematic.
    4. Reset pin state on board. Ans: done, but these are all fine in both cases of working and not working. Only problem I am seeing with update symbol.

      ​Thanks for information,

      where as in this project if the library path not added then things are working fine. But for the same logic library path added means not working.

      >> weird, Try to regenerate all the IP or qsys system or copy the library to working directory and check

      Hope same Quartus tool is used for both design development!

      Yes, Same quaruts is used for both design development. Actually, We don't have the facility/base codes to regenerate all the IP. My worry to do that copy the library to working directory is if that also get corrupted or spoiled my golden project reference also gone right.

      Any of these kind of problems have you seen with tools so that it can be solved in a easy way?

      >>Should not be problem if you copy the library to working directory. (If you have concern, copy the project to external drive)
