Modify One Force Platform

This command can be used to perform the same function as the Modify Force Platform Parameters command, but for just one force platform.

Pipeline Command

This command can be found in the Pipeline Workshop within the Force folder as so:

Modify_One_Force_Platform
! /FP_SELECTED=
! /FP_TYPE=
! /FP_CHANNEL=
! /FP_ORIGIN=
! /FP_CALMATRIX=
! /FP_ZEROS=
! /FP_CORNER1=
! /FP_CORNER2=
! /FP_CORNER3=
! /FP_CORNER4=
! /FP_COP_POLYNOMIAL=
! /FP_COP_TRANSLATION=
! /FP_COP_ROTATION=
! /UPDATE_C3D_FILE=FALSE
! /MODIFY_CAL_FILE=FALSE
;

Command Parameters

The following table shows the command parameters seen above and their descriptions:

FP SelectedWhich force platform to be modified
FP TypeTypes of force platforms (1=default, 2= AMTI,Bertec, 3= Kistler)
FP ChannelAn array containing the ANALOG channels associated with the force platform
FP OriginThe origin of the force platform in the force platform coordinate system (see the force platform manufacturer specifications
FP CalmatrixThis section allows the user to manually enter the force plate calibration matrix. This matrix is individual to force plate
FP ZerosThe zero start and zero end, specific for each force plate
FP CornerThe (x,y,z) coordinates of the force platform corners in the laboratory coordinate system. Note that there is a specific ordering of the four corners
FP COP PolynomialThe polynomial describing the COP
FP COP TranslationThe translation applied to the COP
FP COP RotationThe rotation applied to the COP
Update C3D FileTrue or False: Update the existing c3d file to the new parameters
Modify Cal FileTrue or False: Modify the calibration file to the new parameters

Dialog

It is also possible to modify force platform parameters via the graphical interface's dialog located in Visual3D's Force menu. The dialog provides you with an overview of all the current force platform parameter values and allows you to edit and save these values.

Example: Vertically Shifting Each FP Corner

This example shows how the each corner of a force platform can be given a vertical translation:

Modify_One_Force_Platform
/FP_SELECTED=1
/FP_TYPE=2
/FP_CHANNEL=1+2+3+4+5+6
/FP_ORIGIN=241.5+819+-0.001
! /FP_CALMATRIX=
/FP_ZEROS=1+0
/FP_CORNER1=-1.502+-819.00098+0.
/FP_CORNER2=-484.50195+-818.99896+0.
/FP_CORNER3=-484.49799+819.001+0.
/FP_CORNER4=-1.498+818.999+0.
/FP_COP_POLYNOMIAL=0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0
/FP_COP_TRANSLATION=0+0+0
/FP_COP_ROTATION=0+0+0
