I have a workpiece positioner. In RAPID external axes must be in this form [9E+09,plate,arm,9E+09,9E+09,9E+09]. But when I use the postprocessor I get this: [plate,arm,9E+09,9E+09,9E+09,9E+09]
Is there a way to map external joints to specific indices?
If this is about the Forum add-on post-processor then the indexing is hard-coded and you need to modify ABB_mod.py a bit to change the indexing. Changing line 782 like on the picture should offset index by one:
If this is about VC OLP product and it’s post-processor then it can done with component properties. After using post-processor once the external axis components should have some extra properties related to program download and you can define the external axis index with “Download::MechanismNumber” property:
