The hoist origin serves as a reference point for associated hoists. Several hoist origins can be placed in the drawing, and different hoists can refer to different hoist origins. The coordinates displayed for each hoist are based on its position relative to the assigned hoist origin.
To place a hoist origin:
Click the Hoist Origin tool from the Spotlight tool set.
Click in the drawing to place the hoist origin.
The first time you use the tool in a file, a properties dialog box opens. Set the default properties, and click OK. The properties can be edited from the Object Info palette.
► Click to show/hide the parameters.
