How to calibrate the reference point

in Robot Controller
Hi there!

I'm new at programming the ABB robot. I like it very much!
I'm creating a interface for operators (sort of flex pendant) which communicates via OPC with the Motion Controller.
The interface can't send values under 0.

So i want my base XYZ postion not at the robot's base, but in the most down-left corner the abb robot can reach.
This will make all the xyz values above 0.

Can someone help me with this?
Hope i explained it well, if not please ask.

Best Regards,
Maik

    Maik,
    Look up workobjects and how to calibrate them.  This will make a coordinate system that is referenced to the base frame.


    Thanks! It's working now :)
