VIVADO 2016.1 mcs download error

[redmaskj]

vivado 2016.1

I want to downloding MCS into artix7 chip.

.bit file is downloading OK but .mcs file can not.

Open Hardware Manager -> open target -> Add configuration memory device -> Choose a configuration memory part

(SPI : n25q 128Mb) -> select mcs file and prm file (check configuration file only,pull-none,erase,program,verify)-> ok

error message is below

program_hw_cfgmem -hw_cfgmem [get_property PROGRAM.HW_CFGMEM [lindex [get_hw_devices] 0 ]]

[Labtools 27-2251] Unable to read device properties. Please make sure that the proper configuration memory part is selected.

@redmaskj From the log looks like device id is not being read correctly.  Check your hardware connection, power supply to flash and FPGA.
