    Hi Sergio,

    Here is quick overview what you should do

    1. Activate device (de_1 soc cyclone v)
    2. Obtain necessary hardware information
    3. Request a license file from Self-Service Licensing Center Home
    4. Setup license (assuming your use fixed license)

    All the step there you can refer to this link below for details

    (from page 22-25)

    For openclsdk v17.1 does not require an OpenCL license. For earlier versions, you either have to buy a license, or if you are university student, you can ask your supervisor to join Altera/Intel's university program through which you can get free licenses.
