For example, the #POSERR subroutine will automatically be executed when any axis exceeds its position error limit.
The commands in the #POSERR subroutine could decode which axis is in error and take the appropriate action. In
another example, the #ININT label could be used to designate an input interrupt subroutine. When the specified
input occurs, the program will be executed automatically.
NOTE: An application program must be running for #CMDERR to function.
Example - Limit Switch:
This program prints a message upon the occurrence of a limit switch. Note, for the #LIMSWI routine to function,
the DMC-40x0 must be executing an applications program from memory. This can be a very simple program that
does nothing but loop on a statement, such as #LOOP;JP #LOOP;EN. Motion commands, such as JG 5000 can still
be sent from the PC even while the “dummy” applications program is being executed.

:JG 5000

Now, when a forward limit switch occurs on the X axis, the #LIMSWI subroutine will be executed.
Notes regarding the #LIMSWI Routine:
1) The RE command is used to return from the #LIMSWI subroutine.
2) The #LIMSWI subroutine will be re-executed if the limit switch remains active.
The #LIMSWI routine is only executed when the motor is being commanded to move.
