Just guessing, but you might have software limits set to 0. That'd be a configuration issue, I'd guess the .ini file or the main *.hal file would have those in it.
You should be able to travel past the home switch. On a side note, I have no home switches and will 'manually' home in Axis by clicking the home button, but I'm not sure it does any good and in my config, I ahve it setup w/ no homes as well as only 1 limit switch for each ends of an axis. I do have software limits set and they're set w/ the idea that I'll home somewhere near the middle of my axes. (except for z). Anyway, look at that.
