5414 - iCEcube2: Why the "Adept USB Programming Software" mentioned in iCEblink40LP1KEvaluationKitUsersGuide.PDF is missing?

Description:
The iCEBlink boards were designed when we supported the bundled iCE programmer. Current versions of iCECube2 do not support iCE programmer. Also with the latest Diamond programmer, USB support for programming the board is not available.

Solution
In order to program the board with latest iCECube2 version , you are required to have the Standalone Diamond programmer and the HW-USBN-2B or 2A cable. Or you can download the older version of iCECube2 that came bundled with the iCE programmer and you will be able to do the USB programming. The older versions of iCECube2 can be found in our Software Archive (http://www.latticesemi.com/en/Support/SoftwareArchive). From the "Downloads" column, click on "Downloadable Software" and search for older iCECube2 version. (e.g iCEcube2 2014-08).
