UFrame "Attached" to robot on a rail

    Hi,

    I'm working with a Fanuc R-2000-iA with controller RJ3iB. In RoboDK I generated several curves (paths for milling). I loaded the milling curves in RoboGuide where they are linked to UFrame_9.
    My problem is that, when I jog the robot over the rail (extended axis E1), the curves also move with the robot.
    When I look at the properties of UFrame_9, I see that it is "Attached" to the robot. The pull-down menu is grey so I cannot select another (a stationary) object/frame to attach UFrame_9 to.

    How can I manage that the curves remain stationary while the robot moves over the rail in order to reach the curves for milling?

    Your extended axis need to be integrated so that the UFrames remain fix. Probabibly you have them as auxiliary. In controlled start, check them under MENU -> Maintenance

    Thanks that sounds hopefull...
    In my RoboGuide menu's (of the TP) I don't see the option to Cycle Power (in order to do the controlled start). Any idea how to do a controlled start anyway?
