standard home position should be the posture below. Make sure to secure enough
area for home-return posture and not to have interference to peripheral
equipment.

In case there is any interference to peripheral equipment during the home-return
operation, the home-return operation completes at the position of interference,
and the proper home position cannot be acquired. In such cases, it may cause
malfunction of robot or peripheral equipment or critical operational error such as
crash or expected operation cannot be made.
