I am developing a LabVIEW vi to control two EPOS2 70/10 and brushed DC motors and I use absolute SSI encoder.
1). I would like to know If there are any inbuilt VI's to control the software position limit in the EPOS controller. If not, how to access the position limit to avoid damaging my test object.

Hi pushpakp,
what LabVIEW Version are you using?
Are you using the Softmotion Module:

Or the EPOS2 Drivers:

Hi,
I use LabVIEW version 2011 and also I use the EPOS2 drivers.

Hi,
these are Third-Party Drivers and for them you will get support via http://support.maxonmotor.com.
You should contact Maxonmotor for this.

to answer your "2nd question" , you have two options :
1) Connect both EPOS2's serial interface to your pc = 2 cables
2) Use the CAN Gateway over the EPOS2
check this thread Parrallelism-EPOS
How it's properly cinfigured for industrial use: I think with a CAN Master interface.
Note: The Vi's from Maxon work fine, I use them on LV2014.
