So I finally found that the one I was looking for was a Basic Positioner, Order Number H896 in the Virtual Robot Edit Wizard. Then, you have to configure it as a linear axis in controlled start and there is a bunch more thing to configure (don't really care, just wanted the robot to move on a linear axe with a specific speed and from 0 to 2000 mm).
Then, when you restart in cold start, in the tree at the left, there's a new machine added and by left-clicking on the last joint of this new machine, you have the option to attach your robot to it.
It's probably a thing you get in Fanuc formation, but I did not receive it. I feel like all documentations should be free and accessible, I come from a developer background and I can normally found everything on the internet .
I'm currently trying to reproduce my robotic cell in handlingPro, but I have difficulty to add a 7th axis for a conveyor.
I'm not trying to reproduce exactly the cell because our 7th axes is control by a xtradive drive and rs232 communication with a program in karel and I know it's not the best practice, but the cell was made by teachers 8 years ago and since I inherited the project (and no one can help from who created the cell) and we are a non-profit organization, it's not an option to buy motion group or extended axis with the actual robot right now. The goal here is only to reproduce the behaviour and communicate with the PLC and the simulation (already found the solution) for generating data for research purposes.

The problem is that I don't have general positioner (like video 1) when I try to configure the robot in Additional Motion Groups (but there is an Independent Axes (H895))
The second problem is that I don't have Rail unit creator in Tools (like in video 2).
I know that I can configure a motor in controlled start, and I tried it. A motor was added in group 2, and I could control it in the teach pendent, but the robot was not moving and I'm not sure if the configuration was right.
One of my collegue just found the problem, I changed the name of the file but not the name of the program in the file, so i was just overwriting the old already existing program .
Hmm, how did you load the program to the robot? Did you do it over the network by exporting in Roboguide? Or did you copy to a USB drive and then load on the robot?
I'm using a CompactFlash SD card (see attached jpg).
When i'm in the file menu, i press [UTIL]->[Set Device]->[Mem Device (MC:)] to access the content.
I can see the pc file and load it, but it's not showing anywhere else.
I have a LR Mate 200ic/5L with an R-30iA Mate controller.
I made a backup of the robot and created a new workcell in handling pro.
I was modified a kl file that we had, and compiled it in handling pro to get a .PC file. When i tried to load the .PC file in the controller, it said that it's loaded but i can't find it in the program list when i press [SELECT].
I'm new to fanuc robot and i can't find anywhere what's the problem.
Thanks
Edit: I do have R632 and R567 option in the controller
