Hi Louis,

This error means that you're trying to assign a bit position beyond
that supported by the particular IO group. In this case, it's because
the ROACH only has 4 user-accessible LEDs, while the IBOB has 8. So
if you just take out the slices that are giving you trouble, it should
be okay.

Cheers,
Henry

Hello,

                      I'm trying to get through the IBOB tutorial...just
to get a bunch of led's lit up. Near the end of designing the model,
when trying to link up 8 slices and gpio blocks i get an error. The
first three sets of slices and gpio's don't give me any trouble..however
when I get to the fourth set I get a dialogue box with the following:

"Gateway bit index contain values that exceeds the bitwidth."

What exactly is it that I'm doing wrong?
ps. This tutorial is originally meant for the iBOB ..but I'm using a
Roach board....I read that simply switching out iBOB:led to ROACH:led on
the registers should suffice...but that may incorrect.

Thanks a bunch for the help!
