located at the forward or positive end of travel, and the reverse limit must
be located at the negative end of travel.

Limit and Home Status Indicators

The UMI-7774/7772 has yellow status LEDs for the forward limit, reverse
limit, and home input signals. Refer to Figure 3-5 for the location of these
LEDs. You can configure the limit and home status LEDs as active-low or
active-high using the switch for the axis labeled LIMIT LED. The down
position of the switch corresponds to active-low and the up position of the
switch corresponds to active-high.
The yellow status LEDs for the limits and home inputs illuminate when the
inputs are active.
