SetCalFrm (Set Calibration Frame)
[Function]
Sets the reference coordinate system used for frame transformation.
Two types of reference coordinate systems (pre-frame transformation and post-frame transformation) are
set with this command.
Note) This command is supported with software version R5 or later (F-Q series) or S5 or later (F-D series).
[Format]
[Terminology]
<Position 1>
The position data used as the origin for the X, Y and Z axes in the pre-frame transformation
reference coordinate system is designated with a position variable or position constant.
<Position 2>
The position data used as the origin for the +X axis in the pre-frame transformation reference
coordinate system is designated with a position variable or position constant.
<Position 3>
The position data used as the +Y direction point in the X-Y plane of the pre-frame trans-
formation reference coordinate system is designated with a position variable or numeric
constant.
<Position 4>
The position data used as the origin for the X, Y and Z axes in the post-frame transformation
reference coordinate system is designated with a position variable or position constant.
<Position 5>
The position data used as the origin for the +X axis in the post-frame transformation ref-
erence coordinate system is designated with a position variable or position constant.
<Position 6>
The position data used as the +Y direction point in the X-Y plane of the post-frame trans-
formation reference coordinate system is designated with a position variable or numeric
constant.

[Explanation]
(1) Position data for defining the two types of reference coordinate systems (pre-frame transformation and
post-frame transformation) used for frame transformation are set. Three position data items are
required to define one coordinate system, so a total of six points of position data is set. In this example
SetCalFrm []<Position 1>, <Position 2>, <Position 3>, <Position 4>, <Position 5>, <Position 6>
