3.1.5. (Optional) Step 5: Modify the Signal Probe Pins Assignments

As long as you reserve the pins (with CREATE_SIGNALPROBE_PIN) before running full compilation, you can optionally add or modify the node that connects to a reserved Signal Probe pin (with CONNECT_SIGNALPROBE_PIN) without rerunning a full compilation. Rather, you can run a Fitter-only compilation to implement the Signal Probe pin assignment change.
Note: If you modify the physical I/O pin assignments with (with CREATE_SIGNALPROBE_PIN) after running compilation, you must rerun full compilation to implement those changes before using Signal Probe.
