Haven't seen this before

I have a PFX with version 3.5 MR2 which now has decided not to rotate the wrist to A0B0 before entering the TP20 changer rack.
I've had problems in the past with no rotation after leaving the change rack, but this is a new one.

Is the rotate at the begining of the program?

I would like to see PCDMIS rotate heads in mid flight

It would save time instead of stopping at the move point and rotating.

it can. i believe the command is MOVE_TO or something like that.

Some controllers do that now, but only some. This was added in V3.5 and caused (and still does cause) hang-ups on controllers that do not support this function. Like my Sharpe32 controller. For tip changes at the beginning of the program (first DCC thing in the program, clearance plane with tip change to go to the first point) it will just stop and sit there. You can (99%) get it going again by clicking on STOP then CONTINUE in the execture window. Also, some times (15% maybe) it will move that first cleanrace plane move AND CHANGE the angle, even though this controller does NOT support that functionality. WATCH THAT FIXTURE! CRASH! Oops! I think it has been fixed in V3.7 MR3, at least, I ahve yet to see it do it there, but then, I have not used this version much either.
