[SO-101] Safe range from last lesson is still active and confuses students for educators schools (beginner)
SO-101 discussion on previous lesson safety limits staying active, unexpected motion boundaries, and classroom reset practices for repeatable starts.
A subtle SO-101 classroom operations problem appears when safety limits or range presets from the previous lesson remain active. The robot still responds, but motion boundaries feel strange and students interpret the behavior as a hardware or ROS issue.
How are you diagnosing SO-101 cases where the safe range from the last lesson is still active and confusing the next class?
Please share how you verify current limit state at startup, which symptoms reveal stale range settings instead of calibration or communication problems, and what reset routine keeps lessons starting from a known safety configuration.
If you reply, include one exact stale-limit symptom and one exact startup or reset step that exposed the issue.
The best replies explain whether the stale limit showed up as reduced reach, unexpected stops, or asymmetric motion.
If one startup summary or reset step catches the issue quickly, share it. Searchers often need that practical classroom routine.
It also helps to say how you keep safety presets visible to the next instructor or student group.
