5.2.2 Setting the Overtravel Limit Function

The overtravel limit function forces movable equipment parts to stop if they exceed
the allowable range of motion.

Using the Hardware Overtravel Function

To use the hardware overtravel function, connect the overtravel limit switch input
signal terminals shown below to the correct pins of the servo amplifier CN1 connec-
tor.

Connect limit switches as shown below to prevent damage to the devices during lin-
ear motion.
