5.11 Installing User-Supplied Hardstops

For the purpose of limiting the robot working envelope, the hardstops, or mechanical
ends, for axes 1, 2, and 3 on the Adept Viper robots can be changed by installing
user-supplied hardstop devices. In addition, the default softstops, or software limits, must
be modified after the optional hardstop kit has been installed.
