Different approach point [PickMaster 3]

PickMaster
1

Hello,

I want to do a different approach point according to the x position of the place container. I have 12 positions in the container (using strict sort) and I want for position 6 and 12 do a different approach.

I have tried to use the x component of the itmtgt but it change always between two triggers, I think this is due to the fact that we are using ATC. I have also tried to use the tag component of the itmtgt but this is also not working I think same reason as before.

Is there a way to get the right position info from the container ?

I can for example use one of the orientation component and put a value from 1 to 12 and then translate the info in rapid code but I think this is not the right way to do unless you have no other solution.

BR,

I suggest that you use two different items, with different type numbers, in your container. Use the first item for position 1-5 and the second item for position 6-12. Then you can check the variable “PlaceTarget.Type” in the rapis code to choose your approach path. The type number of the target will be the same as you set for the item in your project.

Good Luck!
