The top-level design file contains top-level verilog HDL wrapper for users to add their own
design/logic. The Quartus II setting file contains information such as FPGA device type, top-level
pin assignment, and I/O standard for each user-defined I/O pin.
Finally, Quartus II programmer must be used to download SOF file to DE2-115 board using JTAG
interface.

This section provides the detailed procedures on how the DE2-115 System Builder is used.
 Install and launch the DE2-115 System Builder
The DE2-115 System Builder is located in the directory:
"DE2_115_tools\DE2_115_system_builder" on the DE2-115 System CD. Users can copy the whole
folder to a host computer without installing the utility. Launch the DE2-115 System Builder by
executing the DE2_115_SystemBuilder.exe on the host computer and the GUI window will appear
as shown in
