You can use the Quartus II Programmer to configure the FPGA with a specific .sof.
Before configuring the FPGA, ensure that the Quartus II Programmer and the
USB-Blaster driver are installed on the host computer, the USB cable is connected to
the transceiver starter board, power to the board is on, and no other applications that
use the JTAG chain are running.
To configure the Cyclone IV GX FPGA, perform the following steps:
1. Start the Quartus II Programmer.
2. Click Add File and select the path to the desired .sof.
3. Turn on the Program/Configure option for the added file.
4. Click Start to download the selected file to the FPGA. Configuration is complete
Using the Quartus II programmer to configure a device on the board causes other
JTAG-based applications such as the Board Test System and the Power Monitor to
loose their connection to the board. Restart those applications after configuration is
complete.
