9.3.6ReferencelimitLIMIT(14)
The "LIMIT(14)" function for a digital output signals when a setpoint has reached its 
limit. In this case the output is set. The limit values for maximum torque and 
maximum speed depend on the preset control system.
Torque control
The limit monitoring mechanism will signal whenever the torque setpoint 
exceeds the maximum torque (see Section "Limits / thresholds" on page 251).
Speed control
The limit monitoring mechanism will signal whenever the speed setpoint 
exceeds the maximum speed (see Section "Limits / thresholds" on page 251).

Positioning
The limit monitoring mechanism will signal whenever the speed setpoint exceeds 
the  maximum  speed  or  the  torque  setpoint  exceeds  the  maximum  torque  (see 
Section "Limits / thresholds" on page 251).
Infinite positioning/speed mode
Monitoring is activated in infinite positioning (speed mode) when the speed 
reference has been reached. If an ongoing positioning operation is interrupted with 
"HALT", the "Reference reached" message is not sent in this phase. The message 
only appears after the actual target position has been reached.
9.3.7Switchingwithmotorcontactor
Switching in the power cable should only be carried out in a de-energized state. 
Failure to follow this requirement may result in problems and damage (e.g. 
overvoltage or overcurrent shutdowns, pitted contacts). To ensure currentless 
switching, the contacts of the motor contactor must be closed before enabling the 
power stage. In the opposite case the contacts must remain closed until the power 
stage has been switched off. This can be achieved by implementing the 
corresponding safety periods for switching of the motor contactor into the control 
sequence of the machine or by using the special "ENMO" software function of the 
servo drive.
A power contactor in the motor supply line can be directly controlled by the servo 
drive via parameter P125[0] - MPRO_OUTPUT_FS_MOTOR_BRAKE = ENMO(21). 
The timer P148[0] - MPRO_DRVCOM_ENMO_Time defines the on-and-off delay of 
the power contactor. Based on the time delay, the reference value is applied after 
the power contactor is active. If the power stage is switched off, the power contactor 
isolates the motor from the drive.
