Hi all,
I know that this has surely been asked before but I am running into
it now and can't force the P99SE to conform to my will.
I have two connectors, in the original netlist they were miss numbered once
I started the layout so I changed them in the PCB and then the schematic. I
manually adjusted the netlists and carried on a while longer. Then it was
time to bring in some more changes via the schematics. The schematics are
100% correct and match my PCB 100% with regard to these connectors. The
synchronizer does the following:
1) disconnects the existing nets from both connectors. Even though they
match the schematic circuit exactly.
2) it then swaps the two reference designators with each other.
3) then it connects the same two nets to the same two connectors(by ref des
#).
Result: I have the two connectors swapped for location and connections.
How do I get the synchronizer to stop changing my reference designators back
to the original configuration and then miswiring the nets?
A while ago I mentioned that there seemed to be some hidden form of
component matching between PCB and schematic, someone said I was mistaken.
If I was mistaken, how does the synchronizer know what reference designators
in the schematic to change back to once I have changed them?
Here is the synchronizer report!
6 macros to be executed:

Macro 3: Component Designator Change
Rename component designator J4 to J3
Macro 4: Component Designator Change
Rename component designator J3 to J4
Macro 5: New Node
Add node J4-1 to net NetC100_2
Macro 6: New Node
Add node J3-1 to net NetC85_2
