The settings of which limit is left or right is required by the controller. Sometimes it is unknown a priori, just it is clear that both limit
switches are connected and fire if the corresponding limit of the motion range is reached. The stage jam is possible if the limit switches
are configured improperly. Therefore, the controller supports just a simple detection of incorrectly configured limit switches, shutting
down the movement on both of them. Please make sure that their polarity is configured correctly and the shutdown mode is activated
on both of limit switches. The flag of improper limit switch connection detection should be turned on in corresponding XiLab software
menu. Start the movement to any direction until the limit switch shuts the movement down. If there was right-side movement but the
left limit switch became active, or viсe versa, the limit switches should be interchanged (see the Motion range and limit switches
chapter). If the improper actuation of the limit switch is detected and if the corresponding feature is set in the Critical parameters
menu, the controller can turn the Alarm mode on.
Warning. The protection against mistaken limit switches connection doesn't guarantee the complete solution of the
problem, it only makes the initial configuration procedure easier. Particularly, don't start the movement if any of the
limit switches is active, even if the protection is on.
