How do I execute a .jam file in AN 539: Test Methodology of Error Detection and Recovery using CRC in Intel® FPGA Devices?

Description

To perform single-bit error injection or clear the injected error using the Intel® Quartus® Prime Software command-line interface with a .jam file in AN 539: Test Methodology of Error Detection and Recovery using CRC in Intel FPGA Devices, follow these steps:

1. Create a new text file using a text editor.
2. Copy and paste an example of the .jam file shown in AN 539.
3. Save the text file with the .jam extension.
       For example error_inject_arriaii_stratixiii_stratixiv.jam
4. Open a command-line window. 
       For Linux OS, open the command shell window.
       Open the command prompt or Nios II command shell window for Windows OS.
5. To determine the Intel FPGA download cable port number, type quartus_jli -n at the command-line window.
6. Execute the following command
       ( Inject an error )                         quartus_jli -c<n> <jam file name>.jam -aERROR_INJECT
       ( Clear the injected error )     quartus_jli -c<n> <jam file name>.jam -aERROR_INJECT_DISABLE
       <n> is the port number returned with the -n option. You can omit -c<n> if only one Intel FPGA download cable is connected to your PC.
        
       For example :  quartus_jli -c1 error_inject_arriaii_stratixiii_stratixiv.jam -aERROR_INJECT
