Adding Baseframes
A baseframe specifies the location of the tip of a link in reference to the working frame. All movement of a device is in reference to its baseframe. A baseframe minimizes the
complicated calculations in the geometry required when moving a device or robot.
To add a baseframe:
2. Select the location that you want to set as the baseframe for the device in one of the following ways:
Select an existing baseframe, either in the Graphic Viewer or the Object Tree.
Select a location in the Graphic Viewer. (The cursor is enhanced with a frame when selecting a location in the Graphic Viewer.)
Note
You can fine-tune the position of the selected baseframe by clicking the dropdown arrow next to the Frame of Reference button and specifying the exact location of
the frame using one of the four methods available. Refer to Create Frame Options for more details.
3. Click OK. The selected baseframe is displayed in both the Object Tree and the Graphic Viewer.
