Wade, the v4fx60 has two PPC405. Please make sure that both PPC405 are connected to the jtagppc_cntrl in your MHS hardware project file. You might want to compare your setup with the ML410 reference design available at http://www.xilinx.com/products/boards/ml410/designs/ml410_bsb_design.zip. The JTAG IR length of the v4fx60 is 14 (6 for the FPGA + 4 for each PPC405, i.e. for the 4vfx60 it's 6+4+4=14) - Peter Wade Maxfield wrote: > Hi, > > We are trying to generate a system ace file that will program an > xf60 using Xilinx scripts, > (and even their impact GUI), using 8.1i, service pack 3 EDK. > > Unfortunately, if we choose the ml410 board from Xilinx's genace.tcl > script > in their EDK/data/xmd directory, it errors with an invalid instruction > register length. > The irlength is listed as 14 in the xilinx script files.
