I am trying to set up my machine ,in particular soft limits per the setup tutorial. I end up with several questions .
I am attempting to use just 3 switches only.
Under "Homing parameters" I am assuming when referring to figure 11 they actually mean figure 12 [bottom of page]
In figure 12 the first column "reversed" first of all what does "reversed refer to ? secondly tutorials I have seen show X,Y,and Z enabled .
Z in the "softmax" column is zero and in the "soft min" column a negative value, is this correct ?
As the Z axis zero is at the upper limit of travel when the tool decends should the DRO be reading positive or negative levels ?
Lastly is the soft limits button always on when doing any machining operation or only on [operational] during jogging?
