On

Turns tracking on.

Off

Turns tracking off.

"Name"

The name of the entity to be tracked as it appears in the Entity list on the Tracking panel. Must be in double quotes. Options Include:

Plane: Tracks the entity's position and rotation relative to a plane defined by three nodes. The nodes can be on different models.; "Plane (Node1, Node2, Node3), (Model1, Model2, Model3)"; Example: *Tracking(On, "Plane:(1244,1165,1062),(0,0,0)", OnDx, OnDy, OnDz, OnRx, OnRy, OnRz, 999999)
Node: Tracks the position of a node on a model.; "Node:Node, Model"; Example: *Tracking(On, "Node:1153,0", OnDx, OnDy, OnDz, OffRx, OffRy, OffRz, 999999)
