Electronic – Eagle PCB: “No Supply for Power Pin …” error

eaglemicrocontrollerpcbpcb-design

I am new to Eagle and trying to wire up a schematic. I have an IC and the first basic task I'm doing is connecting ground pins to a GND symbol. Here is what I tried with the error:

The error with what I tried

(Note: I'm showing "all" layers on the schematic. I'm a little confused as to what the green circles are.)

I was worried perhaps my net wasn't lined up with the IC's AGND brown line and so maybe that net is not properly connected. But I tried a bunch of times and I can't get it to look any more "connected" than this.

Let me summarize exactly what I am trying to do in case this hints at more errors to come.

The IC chip represents a "Teensy" microcontroller. I got the library from here: http://forum.pjrc.com/threads/935-Eagle-library-with-Teensy-3-0-footprint?p=20178&viewfull=1#post20178

Eventually my goal is to connect pins 19 and 18 to a sensor chip, so the Teensy can read them through I2C. I have the sensor chip schematic as well and I'm essentially trying to "combine" the schematics so I can create a single PCB with both components. Then I want to add a bluetooth module, etc.

The point is I am trying to take existing schematics and combine them with this Teensy chip schematic.

The Electrical Rule Check executes, depending on the pin direction (specified by the author of the schematic symbol), various checks. It expects for the direction of type Pwr a Sup pin set for this net. Sup is a pin type for power supply outputs for ground and supply symbols.

From the Eagle manual:

"[...] For every Pwr-pin there must be at least one pin with the same name but the direction Sup(a supply pin). There must be one on every sheet. These Sup pins are fetched into the schematic in the form of power supply symbols, and are defined as Devices in a library (see supply*.lbr). These Devices do not have a Package, since they do not represent components. [...]"

Further...

"If there is no supply pin in the supply libraries that fits to your voltage in the schematic, you have to define a new supply pin! Renaming an already existing supply pin is the wrong way and can lead to unexpected results!"
