CAUTION: These interference boundaries only help prevent
collision with another interference boundary configured for
another process. They do not protect against collisions with
other machine fixtures that may or may not be protected by a
programmable zone or software overtravel. They do not
account for a ny tool offsets that are active at t he time. They are
absolute positions.

Important: Shared axes can only be defined in an interference zone in one
process. If the system installer defines the same shared a xis to be in an
interference zone for both processes the control generates an error.
