Limit Switch Routine

The DMC-2x00 provides forward and reverse limit switches which inhibit motion in the respective
direction. There is also a special label for automatic execution of a limit switch subroutine. The
#LIMSWI label specifies the start of the limit switch subroutine. This label causes the statements
following to be automatically executed if any limit switch is activated and that axis motor is moving in
that direction. The RE command ends the subroutine.

The state of the forward and reverse limit switches may also be tested during the jump-on-condition
statement. The _LR condition specifies the reverse limit and _LF specifies the forward limit. A,B,C,
or D following LR or LF specifies the axis. The CN command can be used to configure the polarity of
the limit switches.
