Stuck on limit switch

Hi,

when you hit limit switch, isn't possible to get from the position with override limits check box?

But mine remains grey in all circumstances. Do I have to set something to turn it on?
Now I have to turn off power so I can move with the motors.

Thanks in advance
Jiri

This worked, thank you.

Also in my case the overtravel limits are hard-wired into the drives. No amount of GUI bashing is going to get them going again.

The Z axis is no problem, just rotate it by hand off of the overtravel limit and you are good to go. The X axis would have to be disassembled to rotate the ball screw by hand. So for the X axis I will have a set of momentary buttons to creep it off of the overtravel limit. I may also provide a slight bias to get it to go in the direction that I want it to go. But there is also the jog wheel. So I suspect laziness will win out in the end again.

There is also a "Zero Offset" pot on the drive, but I would prefer that it doesn't get touched. I had been using it to temporarily set the direction and speed reference when it overtraveled during the initial debug phase, but those days are long since past.

So far we haven't hit the overtravel limits since the lathe motion was debugged, so I'm not sure as to how important anything other than the bypass limits are. But there will be someone in the same boat with the same setup come along eventually...
