All pins on the 3rd header of the Mega2560 only involve the ATmega2560 mcu chip or the ground GND, +5V, +3V3, and VIN nets:

Some pins of interest:
  • The :NC just means "no connection" and does nothing.
  • The :IOREF pin is in fact just connected to the +5V net.
  • The :RESET pin does eventually make it to the corresponding ATmega2560 pin, but it is part of a wider net involving also reset of the ATmega16u2, so it is mapped only to a RESET net.
  • Four of the digital I/O pins also act as JTAG test pins: TDI (Test Data In); TDO (Test Data Out); TCK (Test Clock); 4. TMS (Test Mode Select).

Notes
[CAPABILITY, FEATURE, TIP, TOOL] In MagicDraw/Cameo an assigned stereotype of a Classifier that types an instance-like element (such as a part Property) "shines through" unless it has an instance-level stereotype assigned. This is sometimes called a "secondary stereotype".
[NAMING, POLICY, STYLE]{STRONG} SysML: Webel: "Trust the Type!" - Often the name of the Type of an anonymous Property or instance-level element is completely sufficient to indicate its role - unless multiple Properties of the same Type have different roles within the same owner context!
[NAMING, POLICY, STYLE] "Trust the Port or Pin Type!" - Often the name of the Type of an anonymous Port or Pin is completely sufficient to indicate its role, unless a clear indication of its direction or unique role is required.

Snippets (quotes/extracts)
 JTAG (named after the Joint Test Action Group which codified it) is an industry standard for verifying designs and testing printed circuit boards after manufacture.
 JTAG: The connector pins are: 1. TDI (Test Data In); 2. TDO (Test Data Out); 3. TCK (Test Clock); 4. TMS (Test Mode Select); 5. TRST (Test Reset) optional.
