    At present, I change the Coordinate system to Tool in the FlexPendant manual.

    The move commands you use in the RAPID program optionally use a workobject -this workobject is referenced to (based upon) the base/world co-ordinate system.

    If do not specify a workobject in your move instruction you by default will be using wobj0, which is in the same place as the base frame (and normally the world frame as this is usually only used (and therefore different from the base frame) in MultiMove systems). If you do specify a workobject in your move instruction the base/world frames are referenced via that workobject.
