4. For each axis, jog the machine to the other extent of travel and record the machine coordinate at that point.
5. On the menu bar, click Configure -> Control, then select the Homing/SoftLimits tab.
6. Enable soft limits on the desired axes by checking the Soft Enable checkmark on their row.
7. Enter the corresponding recorded positions for each axis into Soft Min and Soft Max.
Soft Min must be less than Soft Max.

8. Press Apply to save any changes and OK to close the configuration window.
9. Verify soft limits are active.
1. Go to Service -> Maintenance on the main page.
2. The Soft Limits button should be green to indicate soft limits are active.

During the normal course of operation, soft limits will be active when the machine completes homing.
