Defines a local coordinate system by a location and orientation.
KCN
Arbitrary reference number assigned to this coordinate system. Must be greater than 10. A coordinate system previously defined with this number will be redefined.
KCS
Coordinate system type:
0 or CART | — | Cartesian |
1 or CYLIN | — | Cylindrical (circular or elliptical) |
2 or SPHE | — | Spherical (or spheroidal) |
3 or TORO | — | Toroidal |
XC
, YC
, ZC
Location (in the global Cartesian coordinate system) of the origin of the new coordinate system.
THXY
First rotation about local Z (positive X toward Y).
THYZ
Second rotation about local X (positive Y toward Z).
THZX
Third rotation about local Y (positive Z toward X).
PAR1
Used for elliptical, spheroidal, or toroidal systems. If KCS
=
1 or 2, PAR1
is the ratio of the ellipse Y-axis
radius to X-axis radius (defaults to 1.0 (circle)). If KCS
=
3, PAR1
is the major radius of the torus.
PAR2
Used for spheroidal systems. If KCS
=
2, PAR2
= ratio of ellipse Z-axis radius to X-axis
radius (defaults to 1.0 (circle)).
Defines a local coordinate system by origin location and orientation angles. The local coordinate system is parallel to the global Cartesian system unless rotated. Rotation angles are in degrees and redefine any previous rotation angles. See the CLOCAL, CS, CSWPLA, and CSKP commands for alternate definitions. This local system becomes the active coordinate system [CSYS]. Local coordinate systems may be displayed with the /PSYMB command.
This command is valid in any processor.
