Description T h i s command directs the MM4006 to move until it senses the physical
travel limit. The par or - sets the direction of motion.
Normally, when a travel limit switch is encountered during motion, the
MM4006 stops all motion and generates an error message and turns the
motor's power off. However, with this command, reaching the travel limit is
the desired function so other motions will not be stopped and an error
message will not be generated.
NOTE
It is recommended to set the velocity of the stage to not more than 10%
of its maximum velocity when using this command to avoid mechanical
damage.
Returns N o n e .
