3D Connexion Version 6.6

*INSTANCE

Data line to translate an instance that is not imported froma previous analysis:

First (and only) line:

1. Valueof the translation to be applied in the X-dir ection.

2. Valueof the translation to be applied in the Y-dir ection.

3. Valueof the translation to be applied in the Z-dir ection.

Data lines to translate and/or rotate an instancethat is not imported from a previous analysis:

First line:

1. Valueof the translation to be applied in the X-dir ection.

2. Valueof the translation to be applied in the Y-dir ection.

3. Valueof the translation to be applied in the Z-dir ection.

Enter values of zero to apply a pure rotation.

Second line:

1. X-coordinate of point aon the axis of rotation (see Figure 9.19–1).

2. Y-coordinate of point aon the axis of rotation.

3. Z-coordinate of point aon the axis of rotation.

4. X-coordinate of point bon the axis of rotation.

5. Y-coordinate of point bon the axis of rotation.

6. Z-coordinate of point bon the axis of rotation.

7. Angle of rotation about the axis a–b, in degrees.

If both translation and rotation are speciﬁed, translation is applied before rotation .

There are no data lines for an instancethat is imported from a previous analysis.
