IDE Kin functions, axes not switching to Coordinated Motion

Hello,

I'm trying program to make a program like the pick and place "how to" of the developR series. The problem I see is that only the Kinematic is moving. The axes who are linked to the Kinematic stay in Standstill. I don't see a block in the Motion library to group the axes (Standstill-->Coordinated Motion) so I guess this should happen automatically, but it's not happening in my case.  What am I missing? Maybe I could get it to work using the LowMotion functions but I'm trying to use the simpler blocks like we show in videos. 

Best regards,

Brian

The graphical programming does not group the axes automatically. It expects them to be in the correct state. You can do this via the initialization method. When using this you set all motion objects configured in the IDE to the expected state.

If you want to do this in your code you have to use the low motion commands. Beware that these are working with the motion objects on the ctrlX CORE directly not with the ones configured in the IDE:
