Have you got a ByteBlaster? You should be able to use that to program an EPC1. I used one to program another Altera configuration chip some years ago using a little PCB for the socket and ByteBlaster connector. It was difficult to find the connection details, IIRC.

Hi Leon,
Yes I have a ByteBlaster cable. I am able to transfer my program to the Flex. So I tihnk my ByteBlaster is setup correctly.
Can you show me how to program EPC1 using ByteBlaster?
Thanks.

Sorry, I can't remember. It should be in the UP1 board documentation.
