Same Parameter Containing Different Values

Default report mode:

Summary

This violation occurs when two parameters have been assigned to the same design object, possessing the same name and of the same type, but having differing values.

Notification

If compiler errors and warnings are enabled for display on the schematic (enabled on the Schematic - Compiler page of the Preferences dialog) an offending object will display a colored squiggle beneath it. A notification is also displayed in the Messages panel in the following format:

Same parameter contains different values <Object> <Values> ,

where:

Object is the particular object to which the offending parameter is associated.

Values show the different values for the parameter as a pairing.

Since there are two offending parameters, a pair of errors will be displayed in the Messages panel. They will simply differ in the order of the values, with the value for the parameter in error being listed first, followed by the value of the other offending parameter in the pairing.

Recommendation for Resolution

Typically, you would not have multiple parameters of the same name associated to an object. Review the parameters assigned to the object and remove the erroneous/redundant one.
