Before calibration, you need to determine the axis direction. The set calibration axis will determine the upward axis (Z or Y) in the Global Coordinate System after calibration. Set the type of L-bar according to the length of the L-bar you are using. If you are unsure about the type of L-bar, you can consult our technical engineers.
Click on the "Calibration Pane" in the toolbar at the top of the window. In the calibration window, click the gear icon. Under the "Frame" option, confirm the needed coordinate system definition. You can choose whether the coordinate system is Z-axis up or Y-axis up using the "Up Axis" (5.1.2). In the "L-Frame Type" option, select the corresponding L-Type. The L-Type corresponds to the purchased L-Type rod. The size of the L-Type rod can be determined by measuring the distance between the two marker points at the farthest end of the long side of the L-Type rod. For example, if the distance between the two marker points at the farthest end of the long side of the L-Type rod is approximately 600mm, then the type of L-Frame you are using is "L-600". The last letter in the L-rod type indicates the following: S represents a soft L-rod, R represents a rigid L-rod (default is rigid), and FP represents applications related to force platforms.You can also customize the L-bar type. Select "Manual" from the dropdown menu. Customization requires you to manually enter the X, Y, and Z coordinates of each marker ball in the "Coordinates" table below.
