Hi,

Does the design project contains multiple entities (interface JTAG via debug hub and JTAG primitive)?

An additional JTAG primitive will be created in debug hub. But only one JTAG primitive is allowed per device.

You may need to remove the entities that interface with JATG via debug hub. If the JTAG primitive is part of VQM design, you may need to regenerate VQM file without JTAG primitive.

Thanks

    Would connecting my JTAG instance via a Virtual JTAG IP core solve this issue?
