Issues with Configuring Axis Limits in LinuxCNC for New CNC Machine

Hi all,I'm a beginner with LinuxCNC and just got a new CNC machine set up with the software. I’m having trouble configuring the axis limits properly and I’m unsure if I’m missing something simple or if it's a common issue.Here’s the problem: I’ve set the machine’s physical axis limits, but when I try to run a test program, LinuxCNC doesn't seem to respect them. The machine sometimes attempts to move past the set limits and throws an error, even though the limits are configured in the machine’s INI file.Here’s what I’ve tried so far:
  1. Checked my INI file and made sure the axis limits are set under the
    [AXIS_0]
    ,
    [AXIS_1]
    , and
    [AXIS_2]
    sections.
  2. Ensured the “MAX_VELOCITY” and “MAX_ACCELERATION” values are correctly configured for each axis.
  3. Looked through the documentation but couldn’t find any specifics on ensuring these limits are respected during operation.
Has anyone encountered this before? Is there an additional setting I may need to adjust or something I'm overlooking?Thanks in advance for any guidance!

This might be enough for someone else to help, but I need more information.
Could you share/attach your ini file?
