1648 - PAC Designer: How to resolve error: F38190 "Signal not found in either the #$PINS or #$NODES list."?

This is related to the compiler not finding the signals or nodes needed that are described in the code.

This can occur if there are signals defined in the Supervisory Equations expecting feedback from a pin. The error occurs when trying to use I2C controlled outputs as part of an equation. The I2C controlled outputs only have affect out at the pin level and do not feedback into the PLD array; therefore users cannot use these signals as feedback into an equation.

There are ways to work around this, one is to drive Digital INPUTs with I2C, these go straight into the PLD array, and other methods would require external wiring back around to an input or VMON to drive an equation.

To fix, edit the equations so that there are no I2C related feedback paths, then re-compile.
