Travel Limits - ETC Prodigy FlyPipe Studio Installation Manual

Travel Limits

Once you have verified proper wiring and hoist function, the next step is to set the travel limits.
These limits provide protection for the hoist and anything around it by safely limiting the range
of travel. This is done by positioning your limit switches. The hard travel and overtravel limits are
separated by 13 cm (5 in) of travel, which cannot be modified. When the hoist ships, the upper
limit is set to the uppermost point of supported travel and the lower limit is set to the lowest
point of supported travel.
Your upper overtravel limit must be set so as to provide a minimum of 13 cm (5 in) of travel
between the top of the SafeStop device and the nearest point of conflict in the up direction.
Similarly, there must be at least 13 cm (5 in) of travel from the lower overtavel limit to the
nearest point of conflict in the down direction.
