Command Reference2. FPGA Express Shell Commands set_pad_dir _N_A_M_E set_pad_dir Set pad direction. SYNTAX string set_pad_dir _D_i_r_e_c_t_i_o_n _p_o_r_t _l_i_s_t string _D_i_r_e_c_t_i_o_n list _p_o_r_t _l_i_s_t ARGUMENTS _D_i_r_e_c_t_i_o_n Direction for pad specifies the pad direction to be applied. _p_o_r_t _l_i_s_t List of ports specifies the ports to which this property has to be applied. See object(2) for describing port lists. DESCRIPTION This command sets the pad direction to "Direction" for the ports named in "port list", on the current chip. Each port has with it a valid list of directions that could be assigned to it. If the value to be assigned is not among the permissible values an error is reported. Returns 0 on success, 1 on failure. This command requires that the current chip is defined, otherwise an error message is reported.
