Restricting The Working Range; Axes With Restricted Working Range - ABB IRB 7600 Series Product Manual

2.6 Restricting the working range

2.6.1 Axes with restricted working range

General
When installing the robot, make sure that it can move freely within its entire working
space. If there is a risk that it may collide with other objects, its working space
should be limited.
The working range of the following axes may be restricted:
As standard configuration, axis 1 is allowed to move ± 180º. The working range
may however be increased to ± 220º with option 561-1 Extended working range
axis 1. Note that this option also requires installation of a position switch on axis
1.
This section describes how to install hardware that restricts the working range.
