    Hello,

    I have a Roboguide Workcell where I am adding a 2nd robot to an integrated rail. I cloned the first robot and placed the 2nd robot on the rail but have encountered that DCS Zones move with the robot along the rail. Any help would be appreciated.

    There are two ways to set up the rail. As "external axis" or "integrated rail". Depending on the setup the DCS will stay relative to the rail or Robot. I can't remember for sure but I think DCS zones stay relative to the rail with the "integrated rail" option. This is configured in Controlled start<Menu<Maintenance<extended axis control

    Yes, I have the extended axis set-up on both robots as an "integrated rail" on E1. The extended axis setup is the exact same for each of the robots as well since I cloned the first one. Not sure why the DCS Zones are behaving differently.

    Did you ever find a resolution to this? I have the exact same scenario that is going on...

    I believe I did... Unfortunately, the project was put on hold soon after, so I can't recall the solution. If the project starts back up, I'll be sure to look.
