Once the FPGA has been programmed, the SDALTEVK can be evaluated using the push button interface on the
Cyclone III main board. However, if the terminal interface is desired for evaluation, run the Nios II terminal
program called “nios2-terminal.exe”. This program can be found in the bin folder of the Nios II root directory, for
example “C:\altera\80\nios2eds\bin\nios2-terminal.exe”. If the software loads correctly, a terminal window will
appear with a greeting message as shown below.
