Per the software reference manual I have, WORLD shouldn't be available:

------------------------------------
$SCR_GRP[1].$coord_mask
Minimum: 0     Maximum: 32767     Default: 27     KCL/Data: RW     Program: RW     UIF: RW     CRTL: RW     Data Type: SHORT     Memory: CMOS

Name: Mask for Available Jog Coordinate Frames

Description: Controls what jog frames the coordinate key cycles through. There is a bit defined for each coordinate system available: Bit 0 = Joint Mode Bit 1 = Jog Frame Bit 2 = World Frame Bit 3 = Tool Frame Bit 4 = User Frame

Power Up: Takes effect immediately
------------------------------------

The Default value for this variable is 27 (11011 binary), which would be JOINT, JGFRM, TOOL, and USER.

A value of 31 (11111 binary) should add WORLD.

could not find again in the manual but what was odd was that we installed 3 times and it showed up twice thought I had done something stupid

Years ago this was known as a "bug."

Nowadays this is called a "known issue."

We actually just ran into this problem on a fresh load of software done by my coworker!  This is the first time I had encountered it, and the solution was very simple.  When he did the load, he did not setup application from the controlled start menu, but just performed a cold start. 

To solve it we went into a controlled start, and setup application.  This was on an RJ2 420iF with V4.4 mat handling software.

Good luck

I was interested in the solution with the $SCR_GRP[1].$coord_mask.
Can someone tell me if there is a similar solution to display the position registers on the data screen. I can only access type 1 data registers, no other option on the F1 menu.
