The following tips are to help you with your waveform analysis using the Vitis Model Composer model and the Waveform Viewer:

  • Keep the Waveform Viewer open during a Model Composer session. Do not close the Waveform Viewer between each simulation.
  • If you select a group of signals in the Waveform Viewer, they are all cross-probed from the Waveform Viewer to the Model Composer model.
  • You can add multiple signals in your Model Composer model to the Waveform Viewer display. To do this, press and hold the left mouse button and drag the mouse to draw a box around the signals, selecting them. Then right-click one of the selected signals and select AMD Add to Viewer in the right-click menu. This adds the selected signals to the Waveform Viewer display.
  • When naming an output signal for a block in your Model Composer model, avoid using the reserved characters shown in the following table. These are reserved characters in VHDL or Verilog. If your model contains a signal with a reserved character, Waveform Viewer changes its name according to the following mapping table.
