    Manual, F/T Sensor, Data Acquisition (DAQ) Systems Document #9620-05-DAQ.indd-20 Appendix A – Tool Transformation The tool transformation allows you to enter a series of tool transformations in order to measure the forces and torques acting at a point other than the origin of the sensor. If you specify both rotations and displacements within a particular tool transformation, displacements are performed first, in the order DX, DY, DZ, then rotations are performed, in the order RX, RY, RZ.
  • Page 71 Manual, F/T Sensor, Data Acquisition (DAQ) Systems Document #9620-05-DAQ.indd-20 Rotation allows the customer to rotate the axes while maintaining the frame origin. Figure A.2 shows the direction of rotation about the axis. Rotation is measured in radians. When a value is entered for RX, RY, or RZ the following will result: • RX value will rotate Y and Z about X in the direction shown (see Figure A.2).
