Question about Monitor

Some clarifications before I get to conduits:

When I create system that can be synthesized on an FPGA the components of my system is glued by the Avalon interfaces right?

This interface is also called as System Interconnect Fabric right and is made up of Avalon Bus, right?

These conduits kick in only when the signals are going out of FPGA or if the signals are entering the FPGA right?

Now coming to what you said, If I have a PCI bus then, a conduit shows up between the PCI bus external to the FPGA and Avalon interface within the FPGA right?

When conduits show up in Qsys what should I do with them? leave them alone? since they are connected to outside of FPGA.

Also, what is the role of conduit BFMs. I am not able to imagine or get a clear mental picture of things going on with conduits!. Try simplifying it as much as possible and please explain once again. Appreciate your effort and time :-)

Thanks,
