Open & Compile the Programming Project

If you have not already sequentially completed the Design Entry, Compilation, Timing Analysis, and Simulation tutorial modules, you must first open the programming project before you can begin working in the Programming tutorial module.

To open the programming project, follow these steps:

  1. Choose Open Project (File menu). The Open Project dialog box appears.

  2. In the \qdesigns\fir_filter\program subdirectory, select the Altera-provided program_fir_filter.quartus project file in the Files list.

  3. Click Open.

  4. Choose Start Compilation (Processing menu). The Compiler compiles the design.

  5. When you receive a message indicating that compilation was successful, click OK.


To continue the tutorial, proceed to Section 1: Program an Altera Device.
