I’m trying to test the conveyor tracking , but I got the error in pic1.jpg

[webwiz/302/pic1.jpg](http://forums.robotstudio.com/webwiz/302/pic1.jpg)

When I’m looking in the Conveyor setup Form, it is missing the Mechanical unit CNV1 and the workobject (see pic2.jpg)

[webwiz/302/pic2.jpg](http://forums.robotstudio.com/webwiz/302/pic2.jpg)

While in the Vc it is defined the mechanical unit. See pic3.jpg

[webwiz/302/pic3.jpg](http://forums.robotstudio.com/webwiz/302/pic3.jpg)  
I suspect that some configuration in the virtual controller is worng.  
Could some one provide me the .cfg files to set up the VC for the conveyor tracking?

(The example with the paint robot is working correctly)

Hi Oscar,

In general the only configuration you need is to check the Conveyor Tracking Option in the SystemBuilder.

PickMaster is not supported.

Before you add the system, make sure you have a conveyor mechanism library on your file system. You will be prompted for it.

Then you have to create a workobject and set the property MovedBy=“CNV1” and, UfProg==false.

Now the wobj should appear in the Conveyor Setup Dialog.

Best Regards

Thanks Niklas,  
I was using “prepered for pickmaster option”
