Base Offsets
The base offset is a set of coordinate values that redefines the origin of the
robot. The correct base-offset values are typically available from the robot
manufacturer. Enter the values for the base offsets in the X1b and X3b fields of
the Coordinate System Properties dialog.

Enter the Link Length values.
For the robot shown in our example, the Link Length values
are:
• L1 = 10.0
• L2 = 12.0
Enter the Base Offset values.
For the robot shown in our example, the Base Offset
values are:
• X1b = 3.0
• X3b = 4.0
