If an iMPACT session is active when an Output → Cable Disconnect or Output → Disconnect All Cables operation is
performed, or if the cable is physically disconnected from the host system, the Cable Status Bar
bottom, right-hand edge of the GUI immediately indicates "No Cable Connection."
Xilinx design tools employ system semaphores to manage access to Xilinx cables, allowing multiple applications to
simultaneously access (connect to) a single cable (but only one application can perform cable operations at a given time).
For example, assume two instances of iMPACT (instance A and instance B) are connected to a single cable. If A begins a
programming operation, and B then attempts a programming operation, B is temporarily blocked from accessing the cable.
B receives a message indicating that the cable is locked, and the operation must be attempted again later.
Multiple USB Cable Management
Platform Cable USB II contains a 64-bit electronic serial number used by applications to uniquely identify and access a
specific USB cable when multiple USB cables (up to 127) are connected to the same host. iMPACT provides a dialog box
(Figure 6, page
is highlighted, the status LED on the appropriate cable blinks, allowing users to make a logical-to-physical association. When
the desired cable is connected and the dialog box closed, the status LED no longer blinks.
