hello All:
I am now developing a machine controlled by mach3, when X,Y or Z move above limit position, Mach3 will always on emergency status, until I power off the machine, and move the X Y or Z by hand to leave the limit position, and then power on the machine.
my question is : when my user use my machine, I don't want him to move the X Y or Z, so I want to solve this question by the following steps:
1 Limit stop
2 I click a button in mach3 to do
   a) shield limit signal
   b) drive X Y or Z move to a safe postion
   c) active limit signal
3  machine is ok

so the techic is how to shield the limit signal in mach3 in VB ( I don't want user to change the config/ Ports and Pins),he need only click a button
