12.2 Pose Editor Screen
When the target robot TCP no longer is in the proximity of the limit, the 3D represen-
tation disappears. If the target TCP is in violation or very close to violating a boundary
limit, the visualization of the limit turns red.
Feature and tool position
In the top right corner of the screen, the feature selector can be found. The feature
selector defines which feature to control the robot arm relative to
Below the feature selector, the name of the currently active Tool Center Point (TCP) is
displayed. For further information about configuring several named TCPs, see 13.6.
The text boxes show the full coordinate values of that TCP relative to the selected
feature. X, Y and Z control the position of the tool, while RX, RY and RZ control the
orientation of the tool.
Use the drop down menu above the RX, RY and RZ boxes to choose the orientation
representation. Available types are:
Values can be edited by clicking on the coordinate. Clicking on the + or - buttons
just to the right of a box allows you to add or subtract an amount to/from the current
value. Pressing and holding down a button will directly increase/decrease the value.
The longer the button is down, the larger the increase/decrease will be.
Joint positions
Allows the individual joint positions to be specified directly. Each joint position can
have a value in the range from 360 to 360 , which are the joint limits. Values can be
edited by clicking on the joint position. Clicking on the + or - buttons just to the right
of a box allows you to add or subtract an amount to/from the current value. Pressing
and holding down a button will directly increase/decrease the value. The longer the
button is down, the larger the increase/decrease will be.
OK button
If this screen was activated from the Move tab (see 13.1), clicking the OK button will
return to the Move tab, where the robot arm will move to the specified target. If the last

• Rotation Vector [rad] The orientation is given as a rotation vector. The length of
the axis is the angle to be rotated in radians, and the vector itself gives the axis
about which to rotate. This is the default setting.
• Rotation Vector [ ] The orientation is given as a rotation vector, where the length
of the vector is the angle to be rotated in degrees.
• RPY [rad] Roll, pitch and yaw (RPY) angles, where the angles are in radians. The
RPY-rotation matrix (X, Y', Z" rotation) is given by:
R , , R
