primitive types as well as subcircuit devices. The following table summa-
rizes the level mappings that occur.
NOTE: 1) The logical inversion of the pin is completely independent of the
graphical representation of the pin. For example, using the “inverted pin”
graphic in the DevEditor does not invert the pin logic in the simulator. You
must set the Invert.Pin field to have this effect.
2) Although pin inversion can be specified independently for each device
on the schematic, we do not recommend modifying these settings after a
device has been placed on the diagram. This can create the confusing
situation of two devices with the same name and symbol but different
logical characteristics.
