https://www.alteraforum.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=9485 Now, I've also changed the AS pins discussed two posts up to general IO and connected them to the respective AS pins dclk, data0 etc... https://www.alteraforum.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=9486 When I program the jic file after all this the leds connected to my IO ports all go off completely where as when there is no hardware profile, or the LEDs I don't have connected to anything stay dim so I think the hardware profile is loading. When I power cycle and try to program the nios c code into it though the Nios Eclipse SBTs say that it can't see the target. Pic below https://www.alteraforum.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=9487 So far I haven't been able to get past this. If I changes the nios ii reset vector from EPCS controller to the on chip ram it gets farther, but fails out with a "failed to load elf" error. My system: DE2-115 board Nios II e EPCS controller is connected to nios ii data and instruction bus I've also tried the Flash program in the Nios II eclipse IDE. I start by programming my sof file into the fpga so it has a connection to the EPCS64 device through my Qsys EPCS controller. I then add the sof and elf files to the GUI. https://www.alteraforum.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=9488 It says "No EPCS layout data -looking for section [EPCS-010216]" I'm thinking this means it can't see the EPCS device? So something like the EPCS controller may not be working correctly? Everything I can find on the forum ponts towards it being the AS pins NOT being set to regular IO pins, but I've done that. Any ideas?
