signal net vs power net

tltoth

Hi

How is it possible to define a net to be power net without assigning it to a power plane.

I've a double sided board and the router complains for to many pins on GND nets.

The router considers GND as signal net.

thanks

     No. But when I defined, it gave the same message.

     

    -----------------------------------------------------------------
    # <<WARNING:>> Net GND1 is defined as a signal net and contains 120 pins.
    # This is more pins than most signal nets contain.
    # Please verify whether net GND1 should be a signal net or a power net.
    # Note that a signal net will be routed as starburst or daisy chain.
    -----------------------------------------------------------------
    # <<WARNING:>> Net GND3 is defined as a signal net and contains 114 pins.
    # This is more pins than most signal nets contain.
    # Please verify whether net GND3 should be a signal net or a power net.
    # Note that a signal net will be routed as starburst or daisy chain.

    # <<WARNING:>> Net VCC3 is defined as a signal net and contains 101 pins.
