To determine if the appropriate test design .sof is programmed, check the LCD for the
test design number. Refer to
The LCD shows the following information:

The power values shown for the VCCA_L/R and the VCCH_GXB assume that the
jumper settings are set to 3.0 V and 2.5 V, respectively. Click the Help button to see the
required jumper settings.
The demonstration application communicates with the set of test designs provided
with the kit. You can change the various transceiver parameters that are described in
this section.
To run the application, make sure that the board is powered up properly and there is a
USB cable attached, then go to the <install
dir>\kits\stratixIVGX_4sgx230_si\demos\ directory and double-click on
stratixIVGX_si_demo.exe file. Ensure that the Stratix IV FPGA is programmed with
the .sof specified in
To enable the application to communicate with the board, click the Connect button. To
close the application, click the Disconnect button
Because the demonstration application communicates with the board using the same
interface as the Quartus II Programmer or SignalTap
you can run only one of these applications at a time.
The application will not run unless the USB cable is attached, power is applied, and
the correct .sof is programmed to the Stratix IV GX FPGA as specified in
page
For operating system stability, keep the USB cable connected and the board
powered ON when running the demonstration application.

The Stratix IV GX device junction temperature in Celsius.
The power in watts for the different transceivers (VCCA_L/R, VCCT, VCCR,
VCCH_GXB, VCCL_GXB) and core (VCC) voltage supply rails. Turn the rotary
switch SW16 to observe the different voltage supply values. 
To learn more about the switch position for displaying the various supply rail
values on the LCD, click the Help button in the demonstration application.
The sof/pof number that is programmed is indicated by ‘pof’ followed by the
