Preventing air wires & using FreeRouting.net with Eagle 6.1

Former Member
Former Member over 13 years ago

Hi All...

 

I recently started to use Eagle 6.1 and I noticed that when it auto-routes my board it typically generates between 30 and 45 air wires :-( I thought I would give FreeRouting.net a try. They provide a ULP file to generate a DSN file, that is used as input to that site. But the ULP file they provide does not work, reporting a syntax error.

 

Is there a way to generate a dsn file so I can try out freerouting.net?

 

Also, are there atrategies for reducing the number of air wires?

 

Thanks very much!

    You can download an Eagle V6 ULP from the CADsoft website to generate a

    DSN file from Eagle V6 for FreeRouting. The link on the FreeRouting site

    is for Eagle V5, which has a different internal structure.
