  1. Hi @Fkawall,

    If you have a desktop please try to use the USB ports on the back and if you have a laptop try other ports. You can also try to connect it to another computer to see if the error persists. Right now the discovery doesn't get enough power to start. Maybe a powered USB HUB could also help or to power it from a 5V external power supply. Try with what you have and see if you can see any difference on the connection.

    - different USB ports

    - different computers

    - shorter USB cable with data wires

    - Powered USB HUB

    - External Power supply.

    Let us know what you can find.

    Best regards,

    Bianca

  2. @kpax,

    It seems you have an issue with the drivers on this one. Sometimes when you install Vivado the drivers don't install correctly. So, if you have vivado Installed, please try to install manually the drivers. Here is the path to file the cable drives, It's the same on each installer: C:\Xilinx\Vivado\2015.4\data\xicom\cable_drivers\nt64\digilent I have a previous version of Vivado, you'll have 2017.2

    Please try this and if it's not working we'll see if there's anything else we can do

    Best regards,

  3. Hello,

    You can reprogram the memory of your device.

    - make sure to have only the SMT1 connected to the computer. No other FTDI-USB device, like: USB-UART converter and close other applications, like: WaveForms, Xilinx iMPACT, Matlab....
    -start FTDIConfig
    -press "Find Devices"
    -Pres "Get Info"
    -select present: "JTAG-SMT1'
    -press "Program"
    -press Cycle
    -close FTDICOnfig
    -start Adept and see if the cable is recognized. 

    Best regards,
