Retract Limit

Default: Current position on power-up
Range: Valid 16-bit Position

 

The Retract Limit specifies the minimum value the motion controller will allow as a position Command Value. (When the Scale is negative, this is the maximum value.) A Command Value below this value will be set to the Retract Limit and will cause the parameter error bit in the Status word to be set. The Retract Limit is given in Position Units.

 

Note: The Retract Limit must be changed when the Scale or Offset parameters are changed.

 

Note: On startup, the Retract Limit defaults to the current position of the axis, so new Extend and Retract Limits must be issued followed by a ’r;P’ command before the axis will move, unless different limits have been saved in the Flash.
