IVI switch check if route(s) are connected

Trying to connect an allready connected route will generate an error.

What is the best way to check if a route groupe is connected before trying to make a connection?

I m using IVI and Switch Executive to connect/disconnect route groupes.

Trying to build a general switch sequence some thing like this.

Get the group route name as an argument. First check if the route group is connected(avoiding an error). If its not, connect the groupe route, else do nothing.

Using the "Get Information" Operation and entering the "route"(not groupe) in Channel 1 and Channel 2 and checking the Status seems to work,

But it only seems to work using the route names(not Group Route names). 

And i cant find how to resolve the groupe route names to routes using the IVI Switch step. (can do this using Labview. but you cant combine LV IVI and IVI switch)
