Limits
In a limit test, the crosshead cycles between the limit switches. To set your limit switches
loosen either screw, located on the rear of the test stand, and move the switch to the
required position.
A cycle starts when the crosshead is at the first limit switch and ends back at the same
limit switch. At the end of the test, the home button appears on the stand to enable the
crosshead to be moved back to the starting position.
