SignalTap staus: Not compatible

Issue:

In SingalTap, sometime(not always) when I add/remove signals to/from setup window, save-> full-compile-> program device-> Run analysis, the status shows "Not compatible".

How to solve this issue?

    Hi,

    Can you tell which device you are targeting and the software version being used. Also a brief description / image of the design would be good to debug this.

  • How did you program the device after compilation done? Through standalone programmer or in the SignalTap GUI itself. Try to select again the recompiled .SOF before running the signaltap.

    1. I program the device through the SignalTap GUI.
    2. When it happens next time I'll try to select again the recompiled .SOF before running the signaltap.
