SWLS.EN

Description

This parameter enables the software travel limit switches.

The software limit switches are only active if the axis is homed.

Value	Description
0	Disables both limit switches.
1	Enables limit switch 0.
2	Enables limit switch 1.
3	Enables limit switch 0 and limit switch 1.

If SWLS.EN = 3, then whichever limit switch is set to a greater value will be used as the upper limit switch. For all other values of SWLS.EN, use SWLS.LIMIT0 for the lower limit switch, and SWLS.LIMIT1 for the upper limit switch.

Example

Bit 0 = 0: Disable SWLS.LIMIT0

Bit 0 = 1: Enable SWLS.LIMIT0

Bit 1 = 0: Disable SWLS.LIMIT1

Bit 1 = 1: Enable SWLS.LIMIT1
