Geometric Computing Error

    When performing a search Using 2DShift_ROT i can master the pattern but when applying the offset to a path, Robot Faults out with Geometric Computing Error. Does anyone know a remedy for this. I dont think this matters but, my searches are in the -Y direction and -X direction 2 of each. So therefore my Rotation is on the Z axis

    I had a problem with the same error. 2 searches on the X axis and 2 on Y axis. The reason for the error was that one of the searches on the Y axis was not in the same Z position as the other 3 and it couldn't calculate the offset.

    Heres a pic that shows what I mean:

    To make this work you can use two 1D Position + Rotation touch for each X and Y axis and you get the X offset, Z rotation and from the second touch you get the Y offset and the X rotation. You just need to add both position registers to a third on and use that as the Touch_offset parameter.

    Maybe it helps somebody :smiling_face: Cheers!

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but what you're saying is the following:

    PR[3] = PR[1] + PR[2]

    PR[3] can now be used as a 2D Shift+Rot offset?

    I didn't realize you could combine offsets this way.
