Cannot see Avalon slave in System Console

I am able to successfully generate a design in Qys that includes the GHRD (General Hardware reference Design) plus a new module of my own.

My new module is coded in Verilog.

It is linked in successfully in Qys as an Avalon MM (memory mapped) slave.

I am able to generate the system in Qsys without errors.

I can then successfully program the FPGA on an SoCKit development board.

However I cannot see it in System Console after successfully programming the SoCKit development board.

I can see and successfully read and write the standard LED and DIP switch modules.

However my new module does not show up in System Console:

% get_service_paths slave

{/devices/5CSEBA6(.|ES)|5CSEMA6|..@1#USB 2-2.2#CV SoCKit/(link)/JTAG/fpga_only_master.jtag/phy_1/fpga_only_master.master/button_pio.s1} {/devices/5CSEBA6(.|ES)|5CSEMA6|..@1#USB 2-2.2#CV SoCKit/(link)/JTAG/fpga_only_master.jtag/phy_1/fpga_only_master.master/dipsw_pio.s1} {/devices/5CSEBA6(.|ES)|5CSEMA6|..@1#USB 2-2.2#CV SoCKit/(link)/JTAG/fpga_only_master.jtag/phy_1/fpga_only_master.master/intr_capturer_0.avalon_slave_0} {/devices/5CSEBA6(.|ES)|5CSEMA6|..@1#USB 2-2.2#CV SoCKit/(link)/JTAG/fpga_only_master.jtag/phy_1/fpga_only_master.master/jtag_uart.avalon_jtag_slave} {/devices/5CSEBA6(.|ES)|5CSEMA6|..@1#USB 2-2.2#CV SoCKit/(link)/JTAG/fpga_only_master.jtag/phy_1/fpga_only_master.master/led_pio.s1} {/devices/5CSEBA6(.|ES)|5CSEMA6|..@1#USB 2-2.2#CV SoCKit/(link)/JTAG/fpga_only_master.jtag/phy_1/fpga_only_master.master/onchip_memory2_0.s1} {/devices/5CSEBA6(.|ES)|5CSEMA6|..@1#USB 2-2.2#CV SoCKit/(link)/JTAG/fpga_only_master.jtag/phy_1/fpga_only_master.master/sysid_qsys.control_slave}

There should be one more, my new module called rf_4.

A couple of things.

When I call the programmer I call that from Quartus but in Quartus I don't see my new module in the hierarchy.

I only see it when in Qsys.

When I call System Console I can only call that from Qsys.

I see the option in Quartus but there is no response.

Any help for an Altera newbie much appreciated.

Thanks Martin
