how to configure the moc.cfg parameteres of a custom track under RW7

I get a documentation from ABB france in order to create and parametrize a custom track (so not from ABB library). This documentation was once dedicated to the robotware system up to 6.xx. 
From my part i work on robotstudio 2025 and with a RW7 system.

So the first step dedicated to the creation of the mecanism is ok, no problem.
But a the beginning of the "second part" of the document, i have to load a MOC.cfg file used to parametrize the additional drive of the track.

Unfortunately, the folder structure with RW7 does not match those of RW6 sytems and i can not get the link below to load in my virtual system.
Here's an example of a link that i can get in a RW6 folder where i can find the MOC.cfg files i need to load.
<C:\Users\xx.yy\AppData\Local\ABB\RobotWare\RobotWare_6.16.2027\utility\AdditionalAxis\Track\DM1>

But I don't know how find the "track" folder for a RW7 system.
Does anyone can help me?

    Hello,
    You can find some Drive config file here:
    %LOCALAPPDATA%\ABB\RobotWare\RobotControl_7.20.0\drives\drv1_lib\drvcfg

    Like EXT_DRIVE_MODULE1_MDU7_24.cfg

    Not sure if these are what you needs.

    Hi Denis, Thks!

    I have also found that:
    C:\Users\xx.yy\AppData\Local\ABB\DistributionPackages2\ABB.RobotWare-7.20.0\RobotPackages\RobotControl_7.20.0\utility\AdditionalAxis\Track\DM1

    It seems to work too.

    I just have a problem to move the robot attached to the track because i can move the track from the virtual pendant, no pb, it works, but the robot don't move  on it ! 
    :D
