Position to Element - 2Bh

The library will move the picker in front of the specified element at the current media Get position.

This command can be used to pre-position the robotics to an element to enhance performance, or it can be used as a general-purpose way to relocate the robotics without involving media movement. This might be useful for diagnostic or demonstration purposes.
