Confused by CBP Coordinate System

[Guest]

The PDF from official CBP on nexus, shows the coordinate system as follows: X=Depth, Y=Horizontal, Z=Vertical

 

But the configfile comments in the original download say: X=Horizontal, Y=Depth, Z=Vertical

 

(POV for the above: Frontal view with the model facing the viewer)

 

At least both agree on the vertical axis, and that positive values are up, while negative ones are down. But which definition is the right one for X and Y?

If you're facing the front of the body head on, then X would be the horizontal left and right. Y is the depth forwards and backwards, and Z is the vertical up and down.

Thanks a lot!
