Use a From-To List

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.
