Product Family:  Software

Product Line:  M1 Graphical/General

Problem Title:
Design Manager M1: The specified part is either invalid or not
supported(XC95***/XL)



Problem Description:
Keywords: part, invalid, supported, 95

Urgency: Standard

General Description:

Selecting "Run" in the Implement dialog within Design Manager or
selecting "OK" in a New Revision dialog produces
the following message:

The specified part is either invalid or not supported.	Please
specify a valid and supported target part.


Solution 1:

In order to take advantage of the CPLD auto-device selection feature,
you can specify a part number without reference to a
particular package or speed grade:

FOR EX: XC95108 (no package/speed grade)

When attempting to implement in DM with simply "XC95108" specified
as the part name, you will get the error specified above.  To workaround
this:

1)Select Design->Implement from within Design Manager to bring
up the "Implement" dialog box.

2) Click on the Select button and verify that the Family and
Device fields are correct.

2)The package and speed grade fields can be left to read: ALL.

3)Click OK.

Now the part field should show: XC95108-*-*, which lets
us know that the auto-device selection feature is enabled.
You can now implement your design.
