So I'm attempting to run feeder teach for my platform tray feeder... but I've got no idea what first point I should teach is... normal is the end pin of the feeder but this is for the ptf conveyor... so I've got no idea. If I just teach each corner

That procedure all works perfectly, and I'm read through that section of the manual however... 12. Perform Feeder Teach. Refer to the Feeder Teach Voyager help topic. I can't find anything in Voyager that explains the feeder teach procedure for t

Thanks Peter, when I open feeder teach i'm presented with a bunch of actions. I can't find docs on what the different actions are. Do you know which one I should do? I have attempted to teach the corners but the value it gives put the PTF pick point

I've got access to the universal manuals / voyager but I haven't found a section that describes the feeder teach setup process, I can pick up the teach slug onto the conveyor and then get into feeder teach but if I teach the corners of the slug as t
