5.2 Motion Range Setting by Mechanical Stops
Using the adjustable mechanical stops physically limits the absolute area that the
Manipulator can move.
Be sure to turn OFF the Manipulator in advance.
Use bolts conforming to the specified length and surface processing (ex:
nickel plating
) with
high corrosion resistance.
Specify the pulse range again after changing the position of the mechanical stop.
For details on the pulse range setting, refer to the
Setup & Operation 5.1 Motion Range
Setting by Pulse Range (for All Arms) .
Be sure to set the pulse range not to exceed the setting angles of the mechanical stop.
5.2.1 Motion Range Setting of Joint #1
Install the adjustable mechanical stop (J1) to the threaded hole corresponding to the angle
you want to set.
Normally the mechanical stop is not installed.
