Parent category: Violations Associated with Nets

Default report mode:

Summary

This violation occurs when a Port, Sheet Entry, or Net Label within a Signal Harness, has a name in the form [X..Y] indicating a bus object.

Notification

If compiler errors and warnings are enabled for display on the schematic (enabled on the Schematic - Compiler page of the Preferences dialog) an offending object will display a colored squiggle beneath it. A notification is also displayed in the Messages panel in the following format:

Bus <Object> <ObjectName> at <Location> placed on a harness

where:

  • Object is the offending port, sheet entry, or net label.
  • ObjectName is the name of the offending object.
  • Location is the X,Y coordinates for the offending object.

Recommendation for Resolution

Use the Details region of the Messages panel to quickly cross probe to the offending object and modify the name so that it does not use bus syntax.

 

Note

The features available depend on your level of Altium Designer Software Subscription.
