WARNING
Do not operate the Manipulator with the mechanical stop removed. Removing the mechanical stop is
extremely dangerous because the Manipulator may move to a position outside its normal work envelope.
CAUTION
When restricting the work envelope for safety reasons, be sure to make settings using both the pulse range
and mechanical stop.
The work envelope is preset at the factory as explained in the following section.
Standard Work Envelope
The work envelope can be set by one of the following three methods.
1. Setting by pulse range (for all joints)
2. Setting by mechanical stops (for Joints #1 to #3)
