Problem with coordinate system of the track and base of robot

Hi there,

short overview:

-robot is mounted on external linear axis
- linear axis of the track is similar to robot y axis

So if i move the robot manually coordinates are correct as you can see in upper left corner. But if i look on my virtual flex pendant, the coordiantes are totally different. How do I fix this?

    Maybe some further informations:

    track is from GÜDEL, but motor is from ABB -> MU300

    I tried to rotate baseframe of the robot and from track (separated from each other), but nothing had changed.

    I used External Axis Wizard to create the track.

    Tap the position format button (below the co-ordinate readout) -> position shown in-> from workobject to world on the Flex Pendant

    It doesn't matter which position format i use. the incorrect calculation remains. In the meantime, ive send my problem with a pack&go file to the support. I hope that they can help me :).

    wObj = (0,0,0) = Base
