Hi Sheng,

Thanks for the files and the screenshot. I did another run and I see the instance now just like your picture.

But, I do have a question. Is it normal to have "Instance ID" as None, even though I give the name as "CM33" while configuring the ROM IP ? I was expecting CM33 as Instance ID instead of None.

Best regards,

Rahul

    Hi,

    FYI. Please stick with the workaround below in the mean time:

    1. Go to <Quartus_installed_directory>\ip\altera\sld\jtag\intel_mce\intel_mce_hw.tcl
    2. Change NODE_NAME type from NATURAL to STRING like the following: add_parameter NODE_NAME STRING 0
    3. Regenerate related IP and program.

    Thanks,
    Best regards,
    Sheng
