At this point our program is stored in the EPCQ-A flash memory, but the Cyclone 10 LP current
configuration is the Serial Flash Loader which is responsible for programming configuration flash
memory. We can simply reconfigure the FPGA with our program by pushing RESET button which
will reset the FPGA and automatically loads the configuration from EPCQ-A.

Testing the Design
Does not matter which way the CYC1000 was configured, the results should be the same for both
methods, with the only difference being if configuration is retained after power off.
On the board by default, the LEDS should now toggle in a slow counting sequence.
Push and hold the USER_BTN to see that the LEDs will now toggle in a very fast counting sequence.
USER_BTN is on the side of the LEDs.
Releasing the USER_BTN, will make the LEDs toggle at a slower rate as before.
