Is there a library that can grab the track positions of a certain carrier or labware ID on deck? I want to save these as a variable to display to the user. The same carrier may be in a different location on another Hamilton, so the track positions could change.
@ScottK - Yes, you absolutely can. I will wrap a library function for convenience and follow up with a link later today.

@ScottK - Here is a download link for a pkg of a SMT Library that accomplishes this.
This is configured to work with both plate (.rck) and carrier (.tml) labware defintions, the function will determine based off of the provided labware ID parameter and parse accordingly. I confirmed this works for both STAR and VANTAGE.
The function will retrieve both left and right track of a requested carrier, or the parent carrier of a plate, so long as the carrier is snapped to the deck.
