12.4.3 Software stroke limit function

Software stroke limit (lower limit)
In the "software stroke limit function" the address established by a machine OPR is
used to set the upper/lower limits of the moveable range of the workpiece. Movement
commands issued to addresses outside that setting range will not be executed.
In the QD75, the "current feed value" and "machine feed value" are used as the
addresses indicating the current position. However, in the "software stroke limit
function", the address used to carry out the limit check is designated in the "
Software stroke limit selection". (Refer to Section 9.1.4 "Confirming the current value"
or details on the "current feed value" and "machine feed value".)
The upper/lower limits of the moveable range of the workpiece are set in "
Software stroke limit upper limit value"/ "
value".
