Rack Mount Point

John Kugler 10 months ago

Is it possible to get the rack mount location into a program without changing probes?

Basically I want the probe to go to a move point, but I would like to send it to the mount point of the rack.

Something in a variable, maybe?

I've looked and cannot find it. I know it's in the settings somewhere cause it is a hard point with X, Y, Z Values.

Thanks.

I do not know how to extract the X,Y, Z read point in the rack calibration as you are after, but one thing you could do, is when you set this rack point, also go into the preferences and define the clearpoint with the same point.

Then in programs, if you want to move to this point, you use the move/clearpoint command.

Use the sequence of moving in the Z first, then the XY plane.

If your rack point is higher above the rack, the clear point hopefully will clear all parts/fixtures on your table.

Yeah, I thought of that. Just looking for a quick and dirty way to grab that information.

Thanks.
