Is it allowed to use a limit switch and servo to switch between the two? If not, is there a legal way to do so?
You can do the limit switch and servo trick to switch it. It's legal, near as I can tell from R65 and R68.

I swear there was a way to do this with a digital IO, but I can't find it at the moment and the Victor User Guide suggests using the limit switch+servo method. Following the manual's recommendations might be the smarter move, even if it is a bit clunky.
