1.13. Synchronizing System Component Information

When a component instantiation values do not match the component's corresponding .ip file, Platform Designer reports these mismatches as Component Instantiation Warnings in the System Messages tab.

You must synchronize any mismatches between the component instantiation, and the component's corresponding .ip prior to system generation.

Follow these steps to synchronize one or more components in your system:
  1. Select the mismatched signal or interface in the System View tab, and then click View > System Info. Alternatively, you can double-click the corresponding Component Instantiation Warning in the System Messages tab.
    Figure 78. System Info Tab
  2. View any component mismatches in the System Info tab. Select individual interfaces, signals, or parameters to view the specific value differences in the Component and IP file columns. Value mismatches between the Component Instantiation and the IP file appear in blue. Missing elements appear in green.
  3. To synchronize the Component Instantiation and IP file .ip values in the system, perform one or more of the following:
    • Select a specific mismatched parameter, interface, or signal and click >> to synchronize the items.
    • Click Sync All to synchronize all values for the current component.
    • Click Sync System Infos to synchronize all IP components (except "Missing Items") in the current system at once.
    Note: The following guidelines apply to synchronizing system elements that Platform Designer identifies as "Different Items" and "Missing Items":
    • You can synchronize "Different Items" but not "Missing Items."
    • For "Missing Items," you must replace the IP component in the Platform Designer system to ensure that the number and names of the parameters match.
