  Figure 1. AMD Waveform Viewer

  If you open it from the right-click menu, the Waveform Viewer opens with the following display:

  • If this is the first time you are opening the Waveform Viewer for this design, the Waveform Viewer opens displaying waveforms for the clock signals in your design, and no other waveforms. You can then add the signals in your design that you want monitored to the Waveform Viewer display (see Adding Signals to the Waveform Viewer Display).

  • If you have previously monitored signals in the Waveform Viewer for this design, and have saved the data, the Waveform Viewer opens displaying the signal names, and waveforms displayed when you last closed the Waveform Viewer.

  • If you have previously monitored signals in the Waveform Viewer for this design, but cannot access the saved data (for example, if you moved the model's SLX file to a different directory, and opened it in the new directory), the Waveform Viewer opens displaying the signal names for the signals monitored when you last saved the model. The Waveform Viewer will not show the waveforms for the monitored signals until you re-simulate the model.

    If you have previously monitored signals in the Waveform Viewer for your design, the Waveform Viewer will open automatically when you simulate your model.
