MachineTravelLimits variable

Can someone provide an example on how to use the MachineTravelLimits variable in a macro? Thanks.

I have some difficults with this to..
I guess you can't setup the values, only thing you can do is create many travel limits (Group 1, Group 2, Group 3) and by these macros (below) manipulate wich of them do you want turn on:

TravelLimitErrorReporting
TravelLimitGroup

Igor is spot on:

This is how it works - In this example we are limiting the Y axis travel of a MillTurn when a facing head is mounted.

Here we load travel group "1" - Reduced Y axis travel

Here we load travel group "0" - Regular Y axis travel

And this is how we define travel groups that are called by the macro "TravelLimitGroup"

Hope it helps...

This was not exactly what I was asking about, but there are a couple places where I can use this information so it will be very helpful. Thank you. As for my original question, I figured out how to use the variable.
