Hello @samfe. We do not set pin types, we keep them all passive. The main reason is, that a lot of pins can have alternate functions and it was causing a lot of problems - especially during Error Check. Using PORTs can help you with Error Check a little bit (e.g. altium can check if multiple output PORTS are not connected together), but this PIN/PORT checking is not implemented very good in Altium. Maybe they improved it, but just couple of days ago I have seen similar post: http://www.fedevel.com/designhelp/fo...le-input-ports
