Sets options for automated routing. Access these options by clicking More Options on the Route Cable Command.
Route cables through electrical raceway networks in the model or workspace by selecting from the list.
Enable routing based on allowable and avoidance volumes
Routes cables through allowable volumes avoiding the avoidance volumes. If you check this option, the software routes the cable only in the allowable volumes. However, this path might not be the shortest path. Clear this option to disable routing based on allowable volumes rule.
Allow overfilling of cable trays
Allows for routing of cables through cable trays that have passed the allowable fill percentage defined for them. However, even when this option is enabled, the software searches for the cable route that will result in the least-filled condition.
Allow cables to enter/exit from the straight sections
Allows cables to enter or exit from a cableway. This is applicable only to cable trays.
Minimize the cable tail lengths
Routes cable such that the cable enters or exits at the nearest entry or exit point available within the maximum tail range, and the maximum length of the cable remains in the cable tray or conduit. If you select this option, the software gives priority to the shortest cable tail lengths than the shortest path.
Allow cable routing through bends with radii < minimum bend radius of the cable
Allows cable routing through bends that have a radius less than the minimum bend radius of the cable.
