Why MAX® 10 FPGA programming failed when I used .jbc file with altera-stapl/JAM-STAPL player?

Description

MAX® 10 FPGA programming with .jbc using altera-stapl/JAM-STAPL player failed with error log “No SLD hub”,”No SLD Node”, “Unrecognized device” and “Exit code = 6”.

However, programming through Quartus® using same JBC or POF is successful. Reading ID_CODE and USER_CODE are working.

Resolution

1. Open the Quartus project’s programming or configuration-file generation settings.
2. Enable “Enable real-time ISP to allow background programming” option.
3. Regenerate the JAM file.
4. Generate a new JBC from the newly created JAM file.
5. Retry programming the MAX® 10 FPGA from the SoM using the new JBC.
