Cyclone V input slew rate

Hello,

I am trying to make an altlvds megafunction work, and have been running through all the possibilities where I could have gone wrong.

The data rate is 519.75 MHz, which should be ok according to the Cyclone V handbook.

However, I have had a look at the input transition times in the TimeQuest Timing Analyser, and it says that the input transition times for my LVDS channels(tamron_rx_in) are 2000 ps. As the data period is 1924 ps, I find this quite confusing. How can the transition time be higher than the period of allowed frequencies?

I cannot even set this to an other value, as the Pin Planner tells me it can only be set for output pins. Does this mean that this is just a placeholder value for input ports?
