Create a New User Frame

Select Add OffsetFrame to create a new user frame. In the window that displays, you can name the new frame.

Note: Creating a new frame doesn't automatically apply that frame. You must either select the frame in the User Frame drop-down menu on the “Position Status Readout” group of the persistent controls, or use the change_workuser_offsetframe() command in a robot program.

Remove the Currently Selected User Frame

Select Remove OffsetFrame.

Create a User Frame From the Current Position

Select Update Offset Frame From Current Position to create a user frame whose zero point is at the robot’s current physical position. This is equivalent to activating that user frame, then zeroing out all 6 position DROs.

Start a User Frame Teach Wizard

Select Update Offset Frame Using Wizard to start a 3- or 4-point user frame teach wizard. 3- and 4-point methods of teaching a user frame involve jogging the robot to 3 or 4 locations. One location is used to define the XYZ origin, and the others are used to define a plane that intersects that origin, allowing the system to accurately calculate the ABC rotations.
