Detecting avualable smart pins on FPGA

Hi All
I needed to detect what FPGA board my code is running on to automatically switch from bit bang serial to smart pin serial if available.
Also because my code uses the push buttons and these are mapped differently too.
Now I don't have to build different versions for different boards, a lot easier to manage.

Chip gives that info on a reset but I don't know how you can access that info. Probably in the small serial ROM.
