Question about Monitor

Hello, is it possible to synthesize the "monitors" on the altera fpgas'. There are Monitor IPs such as Avalon MM Monitor. Can I synthesize such "Monitors"?

Hello Dave,

How will I know if they are attached to physical pins? It is my own module. This module is a sub-module and only the clock pins go all the way to the top. This module has some ports that connect the other modules. For some reason, the bidirectional pins get assigned to a random pins. The input pins and output pins can be declared as virtual pins, but I have problem assigning the bidirectional ones.

When I look at the pin planner, I don't see these pins having any particular pin location !?!! However the pin location is shown in the Fitter synthesis report. I don't know what's going on[wrong].
