In order to make the connection, we can then route vertically underneath the pads and make a
short 45 degree track before double clicking to place the via and complete the connection.
Routing a 45 degree angle
Of course there are many ways we can route the board and personal preference also plays a
part. Feel free to experiment with the other connection on the connector, working around the
battery holder, using the ratsnest to find a legal destination and then completing the route. The
following screenshot is an example of what you might have when you are finished.
Both tracks fully routed
Basic Auto-Routing
From this point on we’ll use the auto-routing engine to complete placement of the routes. As
with the manual tracking the auto-router will obey all the design rules that we configured earlier.
Start by invoking the auto-router from the Tools Menu in Proteus (PCB Layout Module) or from
the icon at the top of the application.
