    Hi Frank,

    Thanks for responding to my query.

    I have managed to resolve the issue. There were certain I/Os that were meant to operate in output mode only, but were configured as bidirectional. Reconfiguring these I/Os as outputs resolved the issue.

Hi,
I read a bit about post-configuration BSDL after confessing that I did even know that such a thing exists.

It seems that I never missed anything with standard BSDL files because my test tool (TopJTAG Probe) already does what can be done in this regard. If loaded on top of a running configuration, it keeps all IO settings, displays pin states in SAMPLE mode and gives me the option to override individual pins in EXTEST.

Regards
Frank
