To establish a Local coordinate system with axes positions different from the
reference frame, use the Motion Redefine Position (MRP) instruction to reset the
position register. Also use the Offset Vector in the MCT transform instruction to
establish an offset between the Local coordinate system and the reference frame.

The work envelope for a Cartesian Gantry robot is typically a solid rectangle of
length, width, and height that is equal to the axis travel limits.
Defining the link lengths, base offset, or end-effector offset configuration
parameters is not required for a Cartesian Gantry robot.
