    Hello, I am currently using a trial version of RoboDK and was wondering how I setup my station so that the virtual world matches the real world. I have been able to load programs made in RoboDK into my robot but the points are off where they are meant to be.

    Hi David,

    Simply put, you need to show the RoboDK where are, in real life, the frame you created.

    If you connected your robot to RoboDK, yon can use the ''Utilities -> Define Reference Frame (User frame)'' option. (See attachment)

    I recommend you to use the "3 points (p3 crosses Y+)" method. Once the robot is connected to RoboDK, you can bring it manually (using the teach) at every point (P1 to P3) and click on "Get p#" to pull the current position of the robot from the controller.

    You can follow this link to RoboDK's doc :
    https://robodk.com/doc/en/General.html#CalibrateFrame

    The reference frame in RDK will then be adjusted to fit the reality.

    Hope it helps.

    Jeremy
