Access to Quartus II web edition license web site

Dear Intel support staff

Thank you very much for your quick reply. Actually, we purchased several tens of FPGA boards for my class about 15 years ago. Because of financial problems, we have still continued to use these boards in my class. These boards are equipped with ACEX 1K FPGA. I confirmed support situations of this target FPGA on the following web site.

https://fpgasoftware.intel.com/devices/

According to the information on this site, ACEX 1K requires the Quartus II web edition up to 9.0. I tried various Quartus II software versions which does not require installation of a license file before. However all the software did not contain ACEX 1K as a target device.

Now, I could access to the license request page shown below and I could receive a license file.

However, although I specified the license file that was given by email, the Quartus II Web Edition (legacy version) did not accept the license file. After I specified the license file, the Quartus II Web Edition software still requests a installation of a license file.

I cannot prepare the enough number of recent FPGA boards so far. Although I think this is our problem, I would appreciate if your could address our problem.

Dear Intel support staff

Thank you very much for your kind responses and supports. According to your instructions, I first requested a license file for my NIC again. After this, I started the Quartus II Web Edition software and then a license setup window automatically appeared as usual. I specified the license file. After this, an sample stopwatch program (project) which is used in my class was opened and compiled. Although no major error reports were shown, I think an rbf format netlist file was not generated; this is the same phenomena as past cases which occurred when a license file expires. I attached the ppt slide including screen shots and compilation reports.

Dear Intel support staff

Thank you very much for your patient efforts and supports. Although I am not confident in my operation, I could obtain a valid license file. After installation of it, I could also generate an RBF file and then I could implement the netlist to an evaluation board. I could confirm that the design worked well. Since there are several tens of computers in our class room for exercises using computers, I will request several licenses for test operations in the next weeks.

Thank you very much again for your kind supports.
