External Axis Limitation

Muggsie

When using a positioner, especially a head stock / tails stock configuration, with a large range of external axis motion (cladding parts for example), RS and AWPP will not display min and max values shown in the MOC file if they are outside of the -720 to 720 range in the "modify external axis" boxes.  The "mechanism joint jog" function shows the correct values.

The code generated in RS and AWPP can be synced to the VC, where the values can be manually changed to something outside of the -720 to 720 range, then synced back to the station.  Even after changing the external axis values in this manner, RS and AWPP will not show anything outside of the -720 to 720 range when viewing the value of the target in question.

Thanks for the report. We will take a look at it.
