13.4.3 Software stroke limit function
In the "software stroke limit function" the address established by a machine OPR is
used to set the upper and lower limits of the moveable range of the workpiece.
Movement commands issued to addresses outside that setting range will not be
executed.
In the Simple Motion module, the "current feed value" and "machine feed value" are
used as the addresses indicating the current position. However, in the "software stroke
limit function", the address used to carry out the limit check is designated in the "[Pr.14]
Software stroke limit selection". (Refer to Section 9.1.4 "Confirming the current value"
or details on the "current feed value" and "machine feed value".)
The upper and lower limits of the moveable range of the workpiece are set in "[Pr.12]
Software stroke limit upper limit value"/"[Pr.13] Software stroke limit lower limit value".
The details shown below explain about the "software stroke limit function".

value" are selected.
