Modify Position Not Updating External Axis

DavidLanham

I really like the new Modify Position button on the RAID tab, Controller Section.  But I am having a problem with it not updating External axis values when it does.  Like if I have a Track in my station and I click the button.  It does not update the track value and it writes the 09x09 value in place of it.  Which means I have to go back and manual change the value.  Otherwise I get a error when I try and step to the updated position, saying No External axis value.

Sync to the station and modify the position there, when you sync back to the rapid it will update the track value.

Scott,

Thanks again, but that defeats the whole purpose of having the Modify Position button in the RAPID tab.

Try enabling the external axis before you modify the robtarget.

Thanks Shell, but when you are using a track the track is always enabled as it defaults to Never disable in the configuration file.  Which I did not change.  So it should be enabled before I try and Modify the position.
