Thanks for the reply.

I am using a custom board with a Cyclone II EP2C20Q240.

An example would be great, or if that's too much trouble a set of instructions would suffice as well. I haven't been able to find the webinar you mentioned.

How do I access/incorporate the Avalon-MM commands (I'm not sure what Tcl is)? This may sound like a silly question, but would this be from Quartus or the Nios IDE? I tried browsing through the available files generated by SOPC Builder but couldn't find any.

Most of the resources online consisted of PDFs with high level design explanations. Perhaps I'm not utilizing the altera website to its fullest potential and the information is readily available. I am a novice so excuse my ineptitude.
