Reset Functionality
At any point during game play, pressing the Reset button (S5) will cycle
the board power, stop the game, and reload the design’s programming
file (.pof) into the SRAM (volatile) portion of the MAX II device via the
Configuration Flash Memory. After the file has been reloaded, all
registers are restored to their default value and the design returns to its
initial introduction display.
Reference Design 3: PCI Reference Design
The PCI Reference Design provides an example of how users can
interface the MAX II development board to a PC via the PCI expansion
slots. The design uses Altera’s PCI T32 MegaCore function to interface to
the PCI Bus of any standard PC. All design files are provided in the
<root>/HW/Examples/ReferenceDesigns/PCI_Reference
Design/QuartusProject/DesignFiles directory.

Development Kit Version 1.1.0
The Slot Game Reference Design has added an extra bit to the
bus input of the LCD controller. It is used to vary the speed of
transactions to the LCD display. For more information on this bit
and its functionality, refer to the lcd_controller.v file in the Slot
Game Reference Design Quartus II Project.
The MAX II PCI demo shows a simple example of how to
generate interrupts. When a user presses one of the switches, an
interrupt is generated. In a PCI system, the interrupts are shared
between many devices. Special care is required that the user
does not press a switch unless the MAX II PCI application is
active.
Open a command prompt (DOS window).
