Multi-Axis Coordinated Motion Instructions

Important:
You may see truncation error in the precision of computations. This happens when both of
these conditions are true:
• The conversion constants of the virtual Cartesian axes in a transformation are small, such
as 8000 counts/position unit.
• The link lengths of the non-Cartesian coordinate system are small, such as 0.5 inches.
It is best to give large conversion constants to the virtual Cartesian axes in a
transform, such as 100,000 or 1,000,000 counts/position unit. The maximum
travel limit of the robot is:
