Applies to Altium Designer versions: 15.1, 16.0, 16.1, 17.0 and 17.1
Parent category: Violations Associated with Nets
Default report mode: 
Summary
This violation occurs when a net in the design has been detected to contain only one component pin.
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:
Net <NetName> has only one pin (Pin <PinName>)
where:
- NetName is the name of the parent net.
- PinName is the component designator-pin designator identifier.
Recommendation for Resolution
By default, this message will not appear in the Messages panel. If you have enabled reporting for this violation type and want to resolve the issue, simply ensure that the offending net is wired to at least two component pins in the design.
