IS: DB31,... DBX12.2 (2nd software limit switch minus)
IS: DB31,... DBX12.3 (2nd software limit switch plus)
Alarm: “10620 Axis reaching software limit /–”
Alarm: “10621 Axis is at software limit /– (JOG)”
Alarm: “10720 Progr. end point is behind software limit /–”.
Notice
All position monitoring functions are only active with valid reference point of the
corresponding reference point of the machine axis.
If the PLC signals that a hardware limit switch has been reached, the machine
axis is stopped with the parameterized brake response.
IS: DB31, ... DBX12.1 (hardware limit switch plus)

The dynamic monitoring functions with reference to a machine axis are:
The speed setpoint monitoring prevents that the max. admissible motor speed
is exceeded.
It must be set such that the max. speed (rapid traverse) can be reached and, in
addition, a certain control margin remains.
