[QUOTE="7mdish, post: 1150039, member: 401140"] Yes it is possible. First of all, AZ limit, EL limit and POL limit are totally independent one from each other. When in Limit mode, you can move all 3 axis using 4-6 keys (AZ), 2-8 keys (EL), and 1-3 keys (POL). 7 sets AZ limits, 9 sets EL limits, and 5 sets POL limits.
