*SetVector() - symmetric vector pair

Sets the component values of a symmetric vector pair.

Syntax

*SetVector(vector_name, LEFT|RIGHT, x, y, z)

Arguments

vector_name
The variable name of an existing vector pair.
Data type: varname
LEFT RIGHT
If LEFT is specified, the component values are assigned to the left vector, and the right vector components are made symmetric to the left vector.
If RIGHT is specified, the component values are assigned to the right vector, and the left vector components are made symmetric to the right vector.
x, y, z
The X, Y, and Z components of the specified side of the vector pair.
Data type: real

Example

*BodyPair(b_kn, 		"Knuckle", 		p_kn_cm)
*BodyPair(b_jack, 	"Jack", 		p_jack_cm
*PointPair(p_wc, 		"Wheel Center")
*VectorPair(v_Z, 		"Plane Normal")
*InplaneJointPair(jt1, 	"Inplane joint",	b_kn,
								b_jack,
								p_wc,
								NORMAL,
								v_z)
*SetVector(v_Z, 	LEFT,  1,  2,  3)
