Note: Limit switches are assigned as follows: Pos. SW limit switch for clock-
wise operation, neg. SW limit switch for anticlockwise operation. 
When software limit switches are evaluated, the behavior of the drive depends on 
the 
Motion Mode 1208 and Fault Reaction 1144: 
Motion Mode 1208 
Behavior 
0 - 
1 - 
absolute, 
relative 
If the 
Target Position/Distance 1202 is outside of the travel 
range defined by parameters 
Positive SW Limit Switch 1145 
and 
Negative SW Limit Switch 1146, the motion block will 
not be started. The drive reacts as defined in parameter 
Fault Reaction 1144. 
2 - 
3 - 
Touch probe 
If the SW limit switches are overrun before the touch-probe 
signal was received, the drive reacts as defined in parameter 
Fault Reaction 1144. 
If the current 
Target Position/Distance 1202 is outside of 
the defined travel range when the touch-probe signal has 
been received, the target position will not be approached. 
The drive reacts as defined in parameter 
Fault Reaction 
1144. 
4 - Velocity, 
10 … 24 - gearing 
JOG function 
The drive moves to the position of a SW limit switch. Then, 
the drive reacts as defined in parameter 
Fault Reaction 
1144.
