If you are having connection problems with the Altera controller within JTAG Live, then this Altera Port Test troubleshoot utility might help you further.

Connection problems could occur if..
– the Altera controller is not connected
– the Altera driver not installed correctly
– Altera Quartus QProgrammer is not correctly installed

We have made a small troubleshoot tool that will give more information.

The Altera Port Test utility has to be placed into the JTAG Live installation-folder. (e.g. C:\Program Files\JTAG Live or C:\Program Files (x86)\JTAG Live)
Then you can doubleclick the AlteraPortTest.exe and a log file will be written in the working directory (JTAG Live installation folder).
Note: Run AlteraPortTest.exe with administrator rights, to allow writing of the log file.

The utility will produce a logfile which is default named: AlteraPortTest.log
