In my black-out shade setup for my home theater the travel limits are quite critical. In fact they are critical enough that I usually have to try several times to set the limit properly because the jog shift is too large. For one of my limits a precision of about 1/4" is necessary whereas the jog shift built into the motor software is several times that.
So if I needed to set just one of the limits, I did not want to have to fiddle around with the other one too. I discovered that you can work with just the one limit that needs changing by doing the following:
1 - Make sure the shade is already at the limit that you do NOT want to change.
2 - Go into "limit set" mode as usual
3 - Without moving the shade, press the CONFIRM button. The motor will beep as usual.
4 - Now, set the other limit - the one you wanted to change in the first place - as usual. When you CONFIRM the new limit, the motor will change out of programming mode as normal.
If I could change the jog shift, I would do that.

Hi @lacoleman, thanks for your feedback, that is good to know. I think you may be using our older series R motors; our newer G series have a finer jog function.

You are right. I am using the R-series.
