Software limit monitoring with tolerance (P-CHAN-00120)

The actual value based software limit monitoring is fundamentally done on the basis of P-AXIS-00177 and P-AXIS-00178 and under consideration of the tolerance P-AXIS-00179.

The command value based software limit monitoring is done in the path preparation on the basis of P-AXIS-00177 and P-AXIS-00178. If during program start some axes are outside the software limit positions mentioned above, the CNC reports a software limit error.

By the parameter "soft_limit_tolerance" the user can activate a software limit monitoring with tolerance. In this case in addition the axis parameter P-AXIS-00179 is considered in the path preparation. If the current axis position is outside the software limit positions, but inside the tolerance, no software limit error is reported. The tolerance is only considered if the axis is not programmed respectively is not moved.
