User Coordinates

Definition of the User Coordinates
User coordinates are defined by three points that have been taught to the manipulator through
axis operations. These three defining points are ORG, XX, and XY, as shown in the diagram
below. These three points of positional data are registered in a user coordinate file.
ORG is the home position, and XX is a point on the X-axis. XY is a point on the Y-axis side of
the user coordinates that has been taught, and the directions of Y- and Z-axes are determined
by point XY.
NOTE
It is important that the two points ORG and XX be taught accurately.
User Coordinate Files
Up to 24 kinds of user coordinates can be registered. Each coordinate has a user coordinate
No. and is called a user coordinate file.
