Hello,
as many people over this world, I have a problem. The problem is the connection beetween a CPLD and the WEBPACK ISE 8.2.03 software. Simptoms like very static: I have an Parallel Cable III, the ISE software, and a XC9500XL family CPLD. The Impact cannot recognise the CPLD, for example a simple XC95144XL showed five unknown device in the JTAG chain on automatic JTAG chain initialize. I' has been tried to add the device manually, but there is not accepted as a result, because Impact answers unknown device ID. I'm told each family because tried with xc9536XL, simptoms are same. The cable is OK, I using it to program other devices (for example, XC3S400) on everyday. On software side, tried an older software (Xilinx Foundation 4) to program these devices, that programs all without problems.
The question is what is the problem with ISE 8.2.03 ???
