![Select PTP Point > MOVJ mode in the Save Point area, as shown in Figure](https://1856353139-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-MClo3nC-1US0rbK8Qau%2F-MCulz0Ez-hwBXseDutV%2F-MCuox9ToPBd_1eabT3L%2FScreen%20Shot%202563-07-23%20at%2015.38.34.png?alt=media\&token=c53ea251-02f6-436b-9067-2d7247a51ea7)

* Step 1 Press and hold the unlock button on the Forearm to move the robotic arm to a position such as a point A, and then release the button.

  In this case, the DobotStudio will save the Cartesian coordinate of point A, as shown in Figure

&#x20;     Apart from hand-guided teaching, you can accomplish a teaching task by jogging the Dobot Magician in the Cartesian or Joint coordinate system, as shown in Figure

* Step 2 Move the robotic arm to the other two locations such as points B and C by referring to the method of creating point A above, as shown in Figure. The robotic arm will save the Cartesian coordinates corresponding to these two points.

* Step 3  Enter 3 in the loop text box.\
  &#x20;The robotic arm will repeat the sequence of movements for three times, as

  shown in Figure

* Step 4  Click Start to perform the motions taught above, as shown in Figure. The robotic arm will stop after playing back the steps three times.
