Have you tried rapiding up to a soft limit? If you do I think you'll find that the machine stops without overrunning the limits. EMC's soft limits don't wait until you hit the limit and then start slowing down. Soft limits work by not allowing the TARGET position of the move to be set beyond the limit. If you tell the machine "rapid to North Dakota", the control chops that off and says "rapid to AND STOP AT the soft limit".
