Error (275029): Incorrect connector style at port "dataa[7..0]" for symbol "inst" of type mult

Error (275029): Incorrect connector style at port "datab[7..0]" for symbol "inst" of type mult

    You've got a single bit wire connecting from the datab input to what looks like the clock input on the ram instance. There's also a wire shorting between the clock and dataa inputs of mult.

    They're on the left edge of the mult instance so they are hard to see.

    Hi, I corrected the design entry. I am finally seeing the following errors, which I have been unable to get rid of:

    1. Incorrect connector style at port "dtaa[7..0]" for symbol "inst" of type mult

    2. Can't elaborate top-level user hierarchy

    Please help.:(. Modified schematic attached.

    Hi,

    You can take a look at the attached project, I've created a almost identical design setup and have got it to compile successfully. The device used is different , while the LPM blocks used are almost the same with minor variations. You can use this as a reference.

    You still have multiple shorts. Delete all the wires until you don't see any crosses or rounds and reconnect everything.

    Thank you Daixiewen. I tried doing that but a round still appears. I used a diagonal bus line to go from the first data(0..7) of mult to input vcc by clicking on one end and dragging till it meets the other end. A dot then appears. How do I get rid of it or draw so that it doesnt appear? Thanks in advance!

    Delete and re-add components or drag components away from the shorts and delete them. Or drag a selection around the shorts to highlight them and delete.
