    I am working on a project that uses a servo gripper for a palletizing process. I have no experience with a servo gripper only pneumatic. I have setup the servo gripper to be G2 A1. I am using extended axis control and multi-group motion. I am working on roboguide and have noticed points I make (using PRs) move both motion groups. Is there a way to not move both motion groups? For different material I will have a different servo position and I do not want unique points for all the clearance and prep moves for each servo position... I might be asking how to not use multip group motion is certain programs.

    Modify the Group Mask in details of the program to use only the arm motion group.

    Check out the Fanuc position converter I wrote here! Now open source!

    Check out my example Fanuc Ethernet/IP Explicit Messaging program here!

    I make my robot gripper extended axis part of group 1; I advise the same based on your description. Even have you have to have different J7 values for different parts at the same pick and place points, its still easier.

    The mask was exactly what I needed. Thanks Nation
