Axis limit software settings are upper and lower motion degree limitations.

• A. False
• B. True
• C. Not applicable
• D. Only upper limit

Answer: (B)

Soft limits set a safety window for each axis. In the axis control software, you define an upper limit and a lower limit that bound how far the axis can move. When you jog or run a motion, the controller checks the target position against these two bounds and will stop or reject moves that would go past either limit. This two-sided restriction protects the mechanism from over-travel, prevents collisions, and supports safe homing and reset procedures. The exact units depend on the axis—rotary axes use degrees (or equivalent counts), while linear axes use distance. While there may also be hard physical stops, the standard software constraints are the two-sided limits used during normal operation, so the statement is correct.
