AXIS#.SWLS.LIMIT#

Description

Sets the position value for a software limit switch, LIMIT0 or LIMIT1.

Examples

Usage

If only one limit switch is enabled, AXIS#.SWLS.EN = 1 or 2, then AXIS#.SWLS.LIMIT0 is the lower limit and AXIS#.SWLS.LIMIT1 is the upper limit.

If both limit switches are enabled, AXIS#.SWLS.EN = 3, then whichever switch is set to a larger value is the upper limit switch and the other switch is the lower limit switch.

Code

Axis 1 lower limit switch set to 1000 and upper limit switch set to 5000. Axis 1 home position is set and then both software limit switches are enabled.

-->AXIS1.SWLS.LIMIT0 1000
-->AXIS1.SWLS.LIMIT1 5000
-->AXIS1.HOME.SET
-->AXIS1.SWLS.EN 3
