the classis timing

i use the soft is quartus10.0 , and the time is classis timing analysis . EP3C5

1 :

then i have find the ploblem ,it is that

when the pin is used for input , then i use the chip planner and find this pin ,then cllck the pin ,and the resource property editor is appeared , the question is this :

1) : i found the "input pin to logic arry delay 0" is used ,and the value is 6 ,

then i change the value ,but the value is no changd ,

can you tell me why it is ?

2) : can you tell me how to use the "input pin to logic arry delay 1" , because i found the "input pin to logic arry delay 1" is graaly .

3): what is it different form the "input pin to logic arry delay 0" to "input pin to logic arry delay 1" ;

2 : when the pin is used for output , and i click the chip planner and the resource property editor , then i found the output property "output pin delay " and the "output enable register tco delay" is gray .

so i have a question is

1):how to set in assignment ,then the outputpin can use the "output pin delay " or the "output enable register tco delay"

3: in assignment property , i find the setting "input delay from pin to internal cells " and "input delay from pin to input register" , can you tell the different form input delay from pin to internal cells " to "input delay from pin to input register" .

thankyou

    The Resource Property Editor is used for an ECO, whereby it can change the value directly, but it is not saved for the next compile. It's best to do in the Assignment Editor. Put the name of the pin in the To column, the assignment should be Input Delay from Pin to Input Register(or Internal Cell). Then give it a value.

    The handbook for Cyclone III will give a detailed view of what the delay chains look like.

    Rather than the Resource Property Editor, you can go to the Fitter Report -> Resource Section -> Delay Chain Summary, and it will list the post-fit settings for all I/O.

    In generaly, you shouldn't ever have to set these. If you enter timing constraints, then the fitter will set them accordingly to meet your requirements.
