A From-To List is the most efficient way to use Solidworks Routing. By using a From-To List, much of the design process is automated and errors are reduced.
If you do not have an electrical schematics package, or a schematics package with no suitable interface for Solidworks, you can still use a From-To List. You can use Excel to create the list or use the From-To List wizard. You can also write a convertor to convert output from other schematics packages into SolidWorks format.
The From-To List contains:
- Connectivity
- Connector partname
- Connector reference name
- Pin ID’s
- Wire data
Obtaining data from a From-To List eliminates the need to enter wire data manually, simplifies design creation, and reduces errors.
