3.4. Restoring CFI Flash Device to the Factory Defaults

To program the factory image to the flash device in the Quartus® Prime Programmer, do the following steps:
  1. On the Tools menu in the Quartus® Prime software, click Programmer.
  2. In the Programmer window, click Auto-Detect.
    Note: If you do not see Intel® FPGA Download Cable or the board's embedded Intel® FPGA Download Cable II listed next to Hardware Setup, refer to the Quartus® Prime Software and Driver Installation section.
  3. Click Add File and open cycloneVSX_5csxfc6df31_soc\factory_recovery\max2_PFL_writer.pof .
  4. Turn on the Program/Configure option for the .pof file.
  5. Click Start to download the selected configuration file to the MAX® V CPLD. Configuration is complete when the progress bar reaches 100%.
  6. Click Auto Detect and a flash device should show up attached to the MAX® V in the main window.
  7. Double-click the graphic of the flash device in the device chain pane to display the Device's Properties dialog box.
  8. Select the flash image .pof file: cycloneVSX_5csxfc6df31_soc\factory_recovery\output_file.pof .
  9. Once the flash image .pof is attached in the Quartus® Prime Programmer, turn on Page_1 and Option Bits. (Page_0 is reserved for the GSRD factory design.)
  10. Click Start.
  11. After the flash writing process has completed, power cycle the board and look for the MAX CONF DONE LED to turn ON if successful.
  12. Altera recommends that you return to the MAX® V System Controller factory design after completing the flash writing. To do so, program the MAX® V with cycloneVSX_5csxfc6df31_soc\factory_recovery\max<version>.pof . For more information, refer to the Restoring the MAX® V CPLD to the Factory Settings section.
    Note: The flash writer version blinks the SEL 2, 1, and 0 LEDs and does not support the Power Monitor, Clock Control, or other logic functions. Use the flash writer only for flash programming.
