Solidworks 2013 Electrical Routing Problem

Hi everyone

I would like to integrate electrical wiring into my assemblies. Apart from the "Routing" add-on gives me a hell of a white hair.

I followed a tutorial allowing me to create my personal connectors with their connection points. So far, so good.

My problem comes when I start integrating my connectors on SW.

When I integrate the 1st connector everything is fine, I can position it as I want. He created a sub-assembly for my future wiring, so far nothing abnormal.

The problem occurs when I want to connect my two connectors together. I right click on the 1st, create a new route, validate the routing parameters, but when it comes to selecting the connection points I can only select the one present on the 1st connector.

The second connector is clearly visible, as is its connection point, but it is impossible to select it. (see attachment at the end of the post)


Hoping to have made myself understood.

Small precision, on the attachment, I can select only one pod out of the 3 (bottom left)

Last updated,

After thinking about it, I managed to select all the connection points (it is essential to insert the components at the same time or to use the "add connectors" function to be able to select the assembly).

Apart from another problem just arises.

When I insert my components, they are automatically frozen in space. Impossible for me to stress them without going through warnings and 3D sketch error (routing sketch)

I tried to modify the part/sketch constraint by sketch/part constraint but nothing helps.

Knowing that the constraint references entered on my connectors via the Routing add-on are very messed up (impossible to position a connector correctly by sliding it in the desired place). Its jumping in all directions.

Help.. :'(
