Hard Limits
The homing inputs double as hard limit inputs after the machine has been homed. To work, all hard limit
switches must be outside the envelope of axis travel or the hard limit will trip before it reaches the full travel
of your axis. Soft limits should be used first and Hard limits as a last resort. Tripping a hard limit will not
instantly stop the axis but it will decelerate to a stop. Hard limits can be disabled under general settings.
Hint: if you mount your homing sensors/switch on the moving carriage and put a trigger at each end of the
axis travel then only one sensor/switch can work for both homing and Hard limit triggering at each end of the
axis travel.
Soft Limits
Setting up soft limits is important to prevent your machine from crashing due to gcode command that
might result in motion outside your machines physical limits.
Set up incorrectly it will restrict machine travel and in extreme cases prevent the machine from
moving at all.
