<ServiceInformation>
<DescriptionText><text>
Carriage movement is disabled because the carriage limit switch on the HOME/AWAY board is tripped.
There is a limit switch beside both the HOME switch and the AWAY switch.  If either one is tripped, the
carriage motor is disabled and the leadscrew must be turned by hand until it is off the switch.  Red LED's
on the HOME/AWAY board and on the ALE, labelled "LIMIT" and "CM LIMIT", light when one of the
limit switches is tripped.
</text></DescriptionText>
<DescriptionText><text>
The carriage should not trip the limit switch in normal operation.  The limit switch can be tripped if the
carriage is travellling too fast upon reaching HOME or AWAY.  Usually this will happen only if the
carriage has lost track of its position.
</text></DescriptionText>
<DescriptionText><text>
Check if the carriage is at either extreme of its travel. The leadscrew must be rotated by turning the pulley
attached at the AWAY end.  Move the leadscrew so that the carriage moves about one inch towards the
centre of the machine.  Normal operation should now resume.
</text></DescriptionText>
<DescriptionText><text>
If the carriage was not at its extremes, or if moving it manually did not help, the HOME/AWAY board
cable (HA-BP) should be checked  at its connectors. If reseating the cable does not help, it or the
HOME/AWAY board may be faulty.
