2.4.1. Tapping Signals in the Implementation Persona

To add signals from the implementation persona to the Signal Tap logic analyzer:
  1. In the Setup tab, double-click anywhere to open the Node Finder.
  2. Set the following search fields, and then click Search
    Field Value
    Named *
    Filter Signal Tap: pre-synthesis
    Look in top|u_blinking_led
    Figure 19. Search Parameters to Find Signals
    This action displays all the nodes that you can probe in this revision.
  3. From the Matching Nodes list, select the following nodes and then click >:
    • led_three_on
    • led_two_on
    • counter[0]
    • counter[1]
    • counter[2]
    • counter[23]
    • counter[27]
    This action adds the signals to the Nodes Found list.
