Hi,

I'm trying to perform a Path Finder operation to unload an assembly from a rack. I have run a clash analysis between my shuttle and the other components in my CATProduct and there are no clashes or contact detected. When I try to run Path Finder from my starting track I get the error message "First position not valid: clash detected". In my DMU Fitting options I have selected "Activate when moving" for my Clash Detection Activation setting.

Does anyone know how I can address this?

Thanks,
Jeff
