COPY

The following prompts are displayed (at command bar).

Select objects: Use an object selection method and press Enter when you
finish
Specify base point or [Displacement/mode/Multiple] <Displacement>:
Specify a base point or enter an option
Specify second point or [Array] <use first point as displacement>: Specify a
second point or enter an option.

Displacement

Specifies a relative distance and direction using coordinates.
The two points you specify define a vector that indicates how far from the
original the copied objects are to be placed and in what direction.
If you press Enter at the Specify Second Point prompt, the first point is
interpreted as a relative X,Y,Z displacement. For example, if you specify 2,3
for the base point and press Enter at the next prompt, the objects are copied
2 units in the X direction and 3 units in the Y direction from their current
location.
