... I also tried : Signal 'name3' can not add OUT pin 'mirror.0.enable', it already has I/O pin 'ppmc.0.encoder.07.index-enable' Signal 'name3' can not add OUT pin 'mirror.0.enable', it already has I/O pin 'ppmc.0.encoder.07.index-enable' while executing "hal net name3 ppmc.0.encoder.07.index-enable mirror.0.enable" ("eval" body line 1) invoked from within "eval hal $what" (procedure "showEx" line 2)
