7. If the cable is connected correctly, the application will connect and a Xilinx chip chain will be

shown. If the cable is not connected correctly, a cable connection warning is given.

If only one of the cards (the front or the rear) is being upgraded, only the first two or last two
devices in the above chain are displayed.

Note:

The Assign New Configuration File dialog is also displayed. However, ignore this dialog
until you have checked the chain.

Tip:

If the programming tool fails initially to recognize the adaptor or the FPGA chain, you can

sometimes solve this issue by:

Pressing the reset switches by the FPGA.

Setting a slower cable speed.

8. The Assign New Configuration File dialog asks you to select an FPGA image for the first

device in the chain or to bypass that device.

In this example procedure:

a. Bypass the first and third devices. In the Assign New Configuration File dialog,

press Bypass for each device.
