Colby,
Thanks for the tip. I have 11 errors of which 7 are net names on
short wires to pins on a FPGA that are not used yet. I figured these were
safe and had nothing to do with my power plane and ground plane connectivity
problems.
Four of the errors are pins of an FPGA that go th
double click on the error mark and it will tell you what the error is. Have
you checked to see if a junction point is in the wrong spot. I have made
that mistake a couple of times and had a similar problem.

What John said.
We need to make sure to keep the difference between the ERC error markers
and a Netlist Macro error clear.
The Error markers were NOT created by Update PCB, they were created by ERC
and are not related to your 'Node Not Found' error.
ERC is a subject I wil
I just wanted to congratulate Colby on his ambitions to become an engineer.
Colby helped me a number of times when I was first learning Protel about 18
months ago. He was very helpful and saw me through some tough start up
issues (particularly importing an Orcad netlist, when this option first

I think the important word is "node" - not "net"! A missing node
error is related to the pin name i.e. the schematic symbol has a
pin numbered EA21, while the PCB component doesn't. So the
synchroniser is attempting to connect a net to a pin that it
can't locate on the component.

Well... I can't remember when or why I came
Gordon,
With the Synchronizer always do a Preview Changes before executing. When
the Changes Tab pops up with the macro list you will see a Only Show Errors
checkbox. Check this. There is also a report button to generate a report
from this.
