Obviously a newbie question … Can syn and generate appropriate tutorial.bit file but niether front panel or impact will download it …
Seems that the device ID’s do not match …
PROGRESS_START - Starting Operation.
Validating chain…
Boundary-scan chain validated successfully.
ERROR:iMPACT:583 - ‘1’: The idcode read from the device does not match the idcode in the bsdl File.

I think the right part has been selected … xc3s400-4pq208 in ISE ver 6.3…
Any idea?
I’m not sure precisely what your doing with Impact, so we can’t be of much help there.
Can you download any of our sample bit files compiled for the XEM3001v2? All bit files for the xc3s400 and/or XEM3001v2 should be ~ 208KB. Check the samples directory in your installation.
If you can give us more details about your tool flow, the board you have, etc, that would help.
If you’re new, I recommend experimenting with the Getting Started guide and the samples in the installation directory (try First and Counters).
