Hi Terry,

The FPGAs are programmed via Jtag two main IC devices that are common in
the market. Using a ftdi chip "FT2232h" and the Cypress FX2 chip "CY7C68013A"
(of course there are some others variants. These two chips offers a link
between USB protocol and Jtag, in order to talk with FPGAs. Hence, the Jtag
programmers are commonly included in many FPGAs boards. Therefore, you have
install the device driver required for your Jtag programmer.  Actually, you
can use the Jtag programmer included in your Artix Board for programming
other FPGAs or CPLDs... The FPGAs and CPDLs sopported, depends on the
Xilinx Software version, estrictly.  The Jtag programmers for Xilinx FPGAs
are commonly bases on the Cypress Chip and a CPLD as a voltage
level-shifter.

If you can share your board model and tools you have right, i can help you.
