HoldInfo (Info)

Message pass {} hold Tns {} after iteration of allocating negative slack delays
Decsription Shows the hold information.

IncompatibleConstraintDB (Error)

Message The constraint database '{}' appears to be from an incompatible version of the Efinity software
Decsription The constraint database is from a version of Efinity that is not compatible with this one. Something is wrong with your Efinity installation.

LBAAvgSlackAndDeltaInfo (Info)

Message Iteration {} of LBA average slack {} average_slack_delta {}
Decsription Shows the LBA average slack and delta information.

LoadTimingFromFileNotFound (Error)

Message LoadTimingFromFile called, but file {} not found
Decsription Timing model file was not found. Something is wrong with your Efinity installation.

MaxDeviceFreq (Info)

Message Max device frequency is {} MHz
Decsription The maximum clock frequency of the device limited to this value.

RefPinModified (Error)

Main Message The Efinity timing engine has found incompatible modifications to the I/O delay constraints in your design. You cannot change the -reference_pin parameter for the set_input_delay and set_output_delay SDC constraints between the placement and routing stages. Either revert those changes or rerun the place and route flow from the beginning
Action The Efinity timing engine has found incompatible modifications to the I/O delay constraints in your design. You cannot change the -reference_pin parameter for the set_input_delay and set_output_delay SDC constraints between the placement and routing stages. Either revert those changes or rerun the place and route flow from the beginning.
Sub-Message Expected: {}: {}
Decsription Shows the expected an I/O delay constraint.
Sub-Message Actual: {}: {}
Decsription Shows the actual I/O delay constraint.

RoutingNotLoaded (Error)

Message {} called when routing not loaded
Decsription Internal flow control issue. Timing function called before routing loaded. Please report this error in the forum so we can fix it.

TclCommandError (Warning)

Message Suppressed error: {}
Decsription Tcl command failed.

TclFileDoesNotExist (Error)

Message File '{}' does not exist
Decsription The Tcl file does not exist. Check the filename.

TclSetupFailed (Error)

Message Unable to Setup Tcl Interpreter: {}
Decsription Error encountered setting up the Tcl Interpreter. Something is wrong with your Efinity installation.

TimingAlreadyLoaded (Error)

Message {} called when timing already loaded
Decsription Internal flow control issue. Timing function called before timing loaded. Please report this error in the forum so we can fix it.

TimingDataPrelim (Info)

Message NOTE: The timing data is not final
Decsription Timing model is preliminary.

TimingNotLoaded (Error)

Message {} called when timing not loaded
Decsription Internal flow control issue. Timing function called before timing loaded. Please report this error in the forum so we can fix it.

UnloadTimingFailed (Error)

Message Failed to unload timing
Decsription Failed to unload timing. Something is wrong with your Efinity installation.
