So I have an Arria V SOC Dev Kit and am struggling with it. 

 

I have the DIP switches set as per the kit user guide. 

 

I am trying to run "Getting Started with Hardware Library" section of the SOC EDS User Guide 

 

I can load the code, and the DMA setup runs OK. 

 

The FPGA setup first fails because the MSEL switches are not set as expected (0). So I try again with them set at the four values corresponding to each of 

 

ALT_FPGA_CFG_MODE_PP32_FAST_AESOPT_DC 

ALT_FPGA_CFG_MODE_PP32_SLOW_AESOPT_DC 

ALT_FPGA_CFG_MODE_PP16_FAST_AESOPT_DC 

ALT_FPGA_CFG_MODE_PP16_SLOW_AESOPT_DC 

 

and every time get a log of e.g. 

 

INFO: Setup FPGA System ... 

INFO: MSEL [2] configured correctly for FPGA image. 

INFO: FPGA Image binary at 0x201e0e0. 

INFO: FPGA Image size is 2275970 bytes. 

ERROR: Setup of FPGA return non-SUCCESS -2. 

 

That the examples and instructions don't work out of the dev kit box is very disappointing. 

 

Can someone from Altera please help. 

 

Thanks.
