Hi Aedan,

Assuming you have properly download the subscription edition. Install it. Under 'Tools' -> 'License Setup...' click on the 'Begin 30-day Grace Period' button. Make sure the family device for DE0-terasic board is installed (cyclone 2 if im not mistaken). Once installed, in IP catalog, select cyclone 2 --> *loading of the IP for family device* --> you should be able to select ADC IP under University Program > Generic IO > DE0-Nano ADC Controller.

Thanks,

Regards

Thank you for your response! I am still having some issues.

I believe I am on the 30-day grace period. After I installed the software and first opened it, a window prompted me to choose a license. There were choices such as searching online for one, providing a folder location, and using a 30-day free trial. I selected the 30-day free trial. Then, when I go to the license set up, the 'Begin 30-day Grace Period' button is grayed out. I suspect that means that I am on the free trial already. Please let me know if that's not the case.

Now, assuming I am on the free trial and should have these University Programs, where do I find the IP catalog? Do you mean in the Qsys program, because I do not see an IP Catalog. I also do not see the IP Catalog in the main software. Can you elaborate on where I can find the IP Catalog?
