FITNET will not use PIN 1 (MR) even if MRINPUT=ON was specified in Viewlogic


Record #707

Product Family: Software

Product Line: ViewLogic

Product Part: wir2xnf

Problem Title:
FITNET will not use PIN 1 (MR) even if MRINPUT=ON was specified in Viewlogic


Problem Description:
The fitter may report insufficient pin resources, or that an input pin
cannot be placed on PIN 1 (MR), even if the MRINPUT=ON attribute was
placed on the Viewlogic schematic.


Solution 1:

WIR2XNF will not place the MRINPUT=ON attribute (or any global attribute
except PART) into the XNF file if it is placed on the schematic as an
unattached attribute.

The MRINPUT=ON attribute must be placed on a schematic component that
will appear in the XNF file. This includes all library components except pads
(including the sheet borders and the TBLOCK symbol).
