New Symbol Instance for Additional Pins when Using a Prototype

Symptom: When creating a design using a prototype containing symbols, Capital Schematic Generator for Systems Integrator generates a new symbol instance for newly required pins.

Solution

When Capital Schematic Generator for Systems Integrator creates a wiring diagram, if it uses a prototype containing symbols and those symbol instances have insufficient pins for the newly synthesized wiring, then a new symbol instance is created for the additional pins.

Capital Schematic Generator for Systems Integrator does not add additional pins to symbol instances already existing in a prototype diagram.

You can prevent the creation of a new symbol instance by adding the required pins to the prototype wiring diagram prior to running Capital Schematic Generator for Systems Integrator.
