Troubleshoot "The device reached position limits during processing" (M222 S20) for xTool S1

Issue Description
How to fix it
If this error message appears, it means that the position limit function has been triggered. Since the XCS software uses absolute coordinates for positioning, the position limit function will be triggered if the size of the design file is out of the canvas range. Normally, using the machine correctly will not cause this problem.
If the laser module is grinding the edge, enable the laser position display on the XCS software and see if the displayed position matches the actual position. If not, the problem may be due to an issue in the Gcode file generated by XCS. Please try to turn off the computer and unplug the SD card, change the Wi-Fi network, and process again.
If the problem is still not solved, there may be problems with the limit sensor, limit connecting cable, or motherboard. Please take a video of how the laser module moves during the issue and provide it to us for analysis.
