Hello Ron, If I understand correctly you are using your limit switches only without any soft limit (hardware limit). Whenever a limit switch is triggered the motion will stop immediately and the only way to recover from that is to turn on the override limits option.
I don't know if understand you right, but you would never want the machine to trigger a hard limit in normal conditions, you need to set up your soft limits as close as possible (given your machine's necessities) of the hard limit.
