BUS TOOL Question!

[Altera_Forum]

Hi !  

I'm using bus tool for the first time and had a bit of a problem. Lets say i have two blocks(Black A and B) consisting of 3 IO. Block A has 3 outputs as of [3..0] and Block B has 3 inputs which receives in [3..0]. So when i attach the bus how should i label it? is there a certain way?  I do know if i want to attach output pins to any bus i have to label the bus and the pins accordingly. But i'm stuck on just connecting two blocks! Please see my attachment !   Thanks !

first of all. 

your name is OK.  you don't need name for a bus which connected directory like between inst0 and inst1. also  you can name them like "tmp_bus_a_b[3:0]" etc.  the last one (Bus[0..11]) just cut off bus and wires. BUS and WIRE can not be connected directory but,each line is connected by there name.  see you.

I forgot one thing. 

 your bus [3..0] has '4' lines.

I would also use bus indexes [11..0]
