SOPC builder

Hi all, 

 

In the SOPC builder I get the following warning when I add a mutex in my design: 

 

Please assign pins for mutex in your Quartus II project. 

 

Does anybody know what this warning means? Why/where do I have to add pins? I simply don't get it. 

 

Thanks in advance.

In the "Board Settings" tab you will see the mutex shown in red. Basically you need to tell SOPC builder that it doesn't need I/O so select an assignment of "No assignment". 

 

PM/email me if you have problems and I'll go through the steps myself so that I can describe this better.
