2.4.2 Mechanically restricting the working range of axis 1
Mechanically restricting the working range
The information in this section is valid both for the floor and the suspended mounted
robot.
The working range of axis 1 is limited by fixed mechanical stops. The working
range can be reduced further by adding movable mechanical stops.
The mechanical turning range can be limited in steps of 22.5° from the
synchronization position, between values defined in the table. The values differ
depending on which design of the gearbox (and base) the robot is equipped with.

Note
The software working range limitations must be adjusted to correspond to the
changes in the mechanical limitations of the working range. The system
parameters that must be changed (Upper joint bound and Lower joint bound)
are described in Technical reference manual - System parameters.
