Foundation Schematic: Viewlogic Import error - cannot connect wire to symbol
Description
Keywords: viewlogic import schematic connect wire
Urgency: Standard
General Description: After importing a Viewlogic schematic, you may see one or more lines like this in the vlimport.log file:
Warning: Schematic 'CONTROL': cannot connect wire to symbol 'FDRD'
解决方案
This error usually occurs when importing "very crowded' schematics with lots of nets.
When there are too many obstacles between two pins that need to be connected, the Foundation "autowire" process may not be able to draw the net between these pins.
Solutions:
By looking at the Viewlogic schematic and the vlimport.log file, you can add the missing nets manually after the import process is complete.
OR
Before importing the Viewlogic schematic, make sure that there are not too many obstacles between connected pins so that the "autowire" process can resolve the connections automatically.
