Relation between the software stroke limit function and various controls
: Check valid
: Check is not made when the feed current value is not updated (Page 429 Basic Setting) at the setting of "feed current
value" in "[Pr.14] Software stroke limit selection" during speed control.
: Check not carried out (check invalid).
: Valid only when "0: valid" is set in "[Pr.15] Software stroke limit valid/invalid setting".

*1 The value in "[Md.20] Feed current value" will differ according to "[Pr.21] Feed current value during speed control" setting.
*2 When the unit is "degree", check is not made during speed control.
*3 When the unit is "degree", check is not carried out.
Precautions during software stroke limit check
• A machine home position return must be executed beforehand for the "software stroke limit function" to function properly.
• During interpolation control, a stroke limit check is carried out for the every current value of both the reference axis and the
interpolation axis. Every axis will not start if an error occurs, even if it only occurs in one axis.
• During 2-axis circular interpolation control and 3-axis helical interpolation control (reference axis and interpolation axis),
"[Pr.12] Software stroke limit upper limit value"/"[Pr.13] Software stroke limit lower limit value" may be exceeded. In this
case, a deceleration stop will not be carried out even if the stroke limit is exceeded. Always install an external limit switch if
there is a possibility the stroke limit will be exceeded.

The home position return control will not be performed if
the home position address is outside the software stroke
limit range.

 Checks 1) and 2) in Page 242 Software stroke limit
check details are carried out.

For speed control: The axis decelerates to a stop when it
exceeds the software stroke limit range.

For position control: The axis comes to an immediate
stop when it exceeds the software stroke limit range.

 Check 1) in Page 242 Software stroke limit check
details is carried out.
The mode switches to the position control mode when the
software stroke limit range is exceeded, and the
operation immediately stops.
