9. Click Generate to generate the remote system update programming files. You can now program the flash memory. You
can save the configuration in a .pfg file for later use.
4.5.3. Generating a Factory Update Image
You can generate the factory update image from the command line directly, by running the quartus_pfg with the following
arguments:
quartus_pfg -c fpga.sof factory_update.rpd -o mode=ASX4 -o start_address=<address> -o bitswap=ON -o rsu_upgrade=ON
Alternatively, you can use the Intel Quartus Prime Pro Edition Programming File Generator to generate a factory update
image (.rpd). You can use this image to update the decision firmware, decision firmware data, and the factory image.
Note:
Starting with the Stratix 10 device family the .rpd to program flash memory includes firmware pointer information for image
addresses as shown in Table 1. You must use the Programming File Generator to generate the .rpd for flash devices.
1. On the File menu, click Programming File Generator.
2. Select Intel Agilex from the Device family drop-down list.
3. Select the configuration mode from the Configuration mode drop-down list. The current Intel Quartus Prime only
supports the RSU feature in the Active Serial x4 configuration mode.
4. On the Output Files tab, assign the Output directory and Name.
5.
Select the .rpd output file type.
6. Click the Edit… button and assign the Start address for the update image in flash memory. This Start address should
be the sector boundary of unused space in flash memory.
