Hello, My workarea is -400 to 200

Work area Tune is -200,0,0

IF nPlaceCount=0 THEN  
WObjPlace:=ItmSrcData{Index}.Wobj;  
GetItmTgt ItmSrcData{Index}.ItemSource,PlaceTargetLimit:=-200;  
ELSE  
WObjPlace:=ItmSrcData{Index}.Wobj;  
GetItmTgt ItmSrcData{Index}.ItemSource,PlaceTarget;  
ENDIF

**Does anyone know how these 3 are related?**

**If work area tune is -200, real work area is -600?**

**If so, limit should be -400?**

**My work area tune, -200 can not be changed because customer gives us the place signal only one robot, and second robot should use the signal to place besides first robot’s.**

Hi,

The work area tune is an offset of all items related to the base frame of the conveyor. The enter and exit limit of the work area is related to the center of the robot in the direction of the conveyor. The optional argument limit replaces the exit limit when used in GetItmTgt.
