A robot control system for repositioning work points used by the robot control system at which operations occur. The work points are retrieved from the robot controller memory and plotted onto a video display for the operator to view. The operator then designates and selects a work point or work points which are to be repositioned. Using a mouse or other type of cursor control, the operator can then manipulate on the video display the points associated with the work points. After the operator has adjusted the position of the points, in the robot coordinate system, the revised points are then stored in the robot controller memory and used thereafter when positioning the robot.

A control system for adjusting a robot arm positionable at a point in a coordinate system from an initial position to a desired position, comprising: memory for storing the point; means for retrieving the point from the memory; video display means for displaying the point at the initial position; cursor means coupled to the video display means and movable within the video display means for indicating the point; selector means coupled to the video display means operable for selecting the point at the initial position, the selected point being indicated by the cursor means; electronic position adjustor means coupled to the video display means for displacing the selected point on the video imaging device from the initial position to the desired position; and electronic means for determining the displacement of the selected point and calculating a coordinate for the desired position.
