Alarm “10620 channel [name1] block [no.] axis [name2] reaches software limit
switch +/–”
Alarm “10621 channel [name1] axis [name2] stationary at software limit switch
+/– (JOG)”

Working area limitations can be specified and activated for geometry axes via
setting data or from the part program (with G25/G26). Monitoring is active after
reference point approach.
